6. How Things Work
It's important to your performance, enjoyment and safety to understand how things work on your scooter. Even if you're an
experienced scooter rider, don't assume that the way things work on your new scooter is the same as how they work on older
scooters. Be sure to read and to understand this section of the Manual. If you have even the slightest doubt as to whether
you understand something, talk to a qualified specialist.
A. Wheel Installation
1. Removing and Installing Bolt-On Wheels
a. Removing a Bolt-On Front Wheel
(1) Open up the brake shoes.
(2) With a 15mm box wrench or a six inch adjustable wrench, loosen the two axle nuts.
(3) If your front fork has a clip-on type secondary retention device, disengage it and go to step (4).
If your front fork has an integral secondary retention device, loosen the axle nuts about six full turns;
then go to step (4).
(4) Raise the front wheel a few inches off the ground and tap the top of the wheel with the palm of your
hand to knock the wheel out of the fork ends.
b. Installing a Bolt-On Front Wheel
(1) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork blades so that the axle seats
firmly at the top of the slots which are at the tips of the fork blades. The axle nut washers should be on the
outside, between the fork blade and the axle nut. If your bike has a clip-on type secondary retention
device, engage it.
(2) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts, and at the same time center
ing the wheel rim in the fork, use a six-inch adjustable wrench or a 15mm box wrench to tighten the axle
nuts as tight as you can.
(3) Close the brake shoes; then spin the wheel to make sure that it is centered in the frame and clears the
brake shoes.
