CHANGING THE HANDLEBAR POSITION
You can change the height of the handlebar by opening the Quick Release lever and pushing down or pulling up on the
handlebar. Once the handlebar is at the desired height, simply tighten the lever as described above.
You can change the angle of the handlebar by loosening the handlebar stem binder bolt(s), rotating the bar to the desired angle,
re-centering it and re-tightening the binder bolt(s) tight enough so that the handlebar can't rotate inside the stem clamp. Do not
rotate the handlebar more that 25 degrees. Doing so will pull the cables too tight and impair brake function.
See Torque Specifications in Section 11,"Specifications."
WARNING:After any handlebar adjustment, make sure that the adjusting mechanisms are properly
tightened before riding.A loose handlebar can cause damage to the bar and stem, or can cause you to
lose control and fall. Correctly tightened handlebar stem binder bolts will not allow any movement of
the handlebar inside the stem. Routinely check to make sure that the Height Adjust Quick Release and
stem binder bolts are properly tightened. Before riding, push down and pull up on the handlebar to verify
that the quick release mechanism is tight.
WARNING:The handlebar stem's Minimum Insertion Mark must not be visible above the top of the
Height Adjust Quick Release. If the stem is extended beyond the Minimum Insertion Mark, the stem may
break or damage the handlebar stem extension tube, which could cause you to lose control and fall.
MAINTAINING HEADSET ADJUSTMENT
The Headset bearings, which allow a person to turn the fork to steer, may come out of adjustment over time. Well-adjusted
bearings allow the fork to turn freely without strong resistance.The bearings must not have any free play.The headset locknut,
located at the top of the headset, should not be loose enough to allow turning by hand.
WARNING: Improperly adjusted headsets and headsets with loose locknuts can cause a loss of control and
you may fall. Do not adjust the headset yourself. Immediately take your scooter to your Dealer or a bicycle
store for service.
