BRAKING
When slowing down the scooter, coordi-
nation of the throttle and front and rear
brakes are most important.
* Both front and rear brakes should be
applied together. Independent use of
only the front or rear brake reduces
stopping performance.
Excessive brake application may cause
either wheel to lock, reducing control
of the scooter.
* When riding in wet or rainy conditions
or on loose surfaces, the ability to
maneuver and stop will be reduced.
For your safety, exercise extreme cau-
tion when braking, accelerating, or
turning.
CAUTION:
*
When descending a steep grade, close
the throttle fully and intermittently
apply both brakes to slow the scooter
down. Avoid continuous use of the
brakes, which may result in overheat-
ing and reduction of braking efficien-
cy.
REAR
Apply both the front and rear
FRONT
brakes.
