Operating manual stæp scooter models Congratulations on choosing a scooter from the go!mate range of products PLEASE READ ALL THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU BEGIN. stæp TR kick scooter stæp ER E-scooter stæp ER Plus E-scooter This manual contains basic operating instructions for the stæp scooter.
The E-scooter ER3 can be supplied with a lefty motor developed by go!mate in 2019. At go!mate, development work on all our models never ceases, so please allow for the fact that changes in design, equipment and technical specifications may be made at any time. Thus, no claims can be derived from the informa- tion, images and descriptions in this operating manual.
Marking of important information These symbols mark particularly important information on risks and safety in operation: This warning draws your attention to possible dangers to your health, your life or that of other persons that may arise when using the scooter. This notice draws your attention to possible damage that may occur to the scooter during handling or operation.
Construction Several important design goals are successfully implemented to maximize the product experience of „driving a scooter“. This includes low weight, best driving comfort even in rough terrain, optimal power transmission and smallest transport dimen- sions. The scooter is manufactured in Germany, all tubes and mechanical parts are made of high- strength aluminum.
Unboxing We certainly understand that you are excited about trying out your scooter right away. Please preserve yourself in patience. Read the whole manual carefully. This ensures that you will be able to always handle the scooter safely. Unpack the scooter. It will be delivered folded. Before using the scooter for the first time, a few steps are necessary to get it on the road.
All components that regulate the speed (brake pads, rims, tyres, etc.) heat up during use, do not touch them until they have cooled down! Operating Conditions The TR Roller can be used without restrictions in any weather condition. For use in the rain an optional mudguard system is available which can be used if required.
Folding Instruction Joint #3 Unfolding Joint #3 The rear joint is connected to the When the fork touches the plank, rear fork by means of a rubber the locking device engages on strap attached to handlebar. the rear plate. Make sure that Remove the strap from the brake the locking device is securely lever on the handlebar.
Folding Instruction Joint #2 Auffalten Gelenk 2 It is recommended to fold joint #2 with unfolded handle bar. This makes the folding process very simple and comfortable. Use one hand to hold the main tube and (1) pull the safety wedge upwards out of the recess in the mounting plate. Now (2) press the locking lever to the main tube and turn it to the direction of the undersi- de of the plank.
flatly on the points of support, press the safety wedge of the locking lever firmly into the opening and thus lock the locking lever. The lever has to be in the front position of the recess and may not be moved with the safety wedge pushed downwards.

Unfolding Joint #1 If there is more than one joint, we recommend folding joint #2 first, then joint #1 and then joint #3 if available. Push the fixing sleeve upwards and release the locking lever. Pull the lever forward and open it. Pull the handlebar back and fold completely.
Handlebar and Front Wheel Alignment Above joint #1 the height of the handlebars can be adjusted by using a clamp on the head tube. Open the lever of the clamp to adjust the height of the handle- bars. Never drive with the clamp open. An unsecured handlebar presents unnecessary risks to your personal safety.
The hose of the rear wheel has a cranked valve which points outwards. This should make it easier to attach the air pump‘s valve socket. For the ER models, we recommend an air pump with flexible hose connection, as offered as a go!mate accessory. Brakes The front and rear brake system consists of the brake lever on the handlebar, the brake hose and the brake caliper.

Practice braking with the scooter to familiarise yourself with the braking behaviour. Especially the use of the front brake should be practiced. The abrupt actuation of the front brake with maximum braking power can lead to a rollover. This brake, especially equipped with 160mm disc, should be used in a careful, considered and well-dosed way.
Stand An optional stand for the scooter is available. It is attached from the inside to the rear fork. The stand provides a firm position for the scooter. The scooter must be on secure and flat terrain, otherwise the vehicle could tip over through it being tail-heavy.
Light When driving on public roads, the scooter must be equipped with safety elements (lights, reflectors, etc.) according to the road regulations in force in your country. A battery light set is available as an option for the scooter. It has very practical dimensions and is also characterized by an optimum light output for the scoo- ter.
After you have assembled the scooter, insert the battery into the battery holder. Lock up the battery immediately after insertion (see chapter Charge Battery). The interlock mechanism of the battery prevents it from falling out of the holder. Switch on the battery at the bottle‘s On/Off main switch. An unlocked battery may fall out while driving.
Once you have selected the correct speed, push the scooter and make a two-foot kick to reach a basic speed. Place both feet on the plank, preferably one behind the other, and then carefully accelerate until you have reached the desired speed.
Charging the battery The scooter‘s battery has a built-in battery management system, BMS. This system takes care of all relevant safety functions and the safe charging process. To charge, remove the battery from the holder in the scooter. Turn off the battery at the main switch.
• Charge the battery only under supervision. Improper charging of the lithium battery can lead to ignition and explosion of the lithium battery! • To charge your lithium battery, always use the charger specially supplied for this purpose. • In any case, avoid using the charger in a humid or wet environment. It is essential to avoid any ingress of water into the charger.
Care and Maintenance If you have to change a punctured tire at your TR or ER3 stæp, you can remove it relatively easily. You do not need to remove the wheel. On the opposite side of the suspension, lift the casing off the rim using a lifting tool. Then pull out the hose, repair the hole and reinsert the hose.

On the mounting plate for the plank there are adjustment screws for the joints #2 & #3. If the joints developed some play, open the joint and unsrew the support surface by a quarter turn using a 4mm Allen wrench. With joint #2, both support surfaces must be opened symmetrically.
