PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
WARNING: ALWAYS INSPECT SCOOTER PRIOR TO RIDING. Properly
inspecting and maintaining your scooter can reduce the risk of injury. Always
inspect your scooter before riding and regularly maintain it.
Always ensure child is wearing proper protective equipment such as an
approved safety helmet. A child should always wear shoes, never ride
barefooted or in sandals, and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of
the wheels.
WARNING: CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING SCOOTER USE. Check
local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use your Razor
scooter legally. In many states and local areas scooter riders are required
BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check local laws and regulations regarding laws
governing helmet use and scooter operation in your area, including laws or
regulations designating High Fire Hazard areas.
BEFORE yOU BEgIN
Remove contents from box. Remove the packing material used to protect the components from damage during
shipping. Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint and dents that may have occurred during shipping.
Because your scooter is assembled and packed at the factory, there should not be any problems, even if the box has a
few scars or dents.
WaRNINg: DO NOT
USE NON-RAZOR PARTS
WITH YOUR SCOOTER.
Razor scooters have been built to
certain Razor design specifications.
The original equipment supplied at
the time of sale was selected on
the basis of its compatibility with
the frame, fork and all other parts.
Certain aftermarket parts may or
may not be compatible and will void
your warranty.

WaRNINg: Failure to
properly secure the spring-loaded
buttons may cause the handlebars
to dislodge while riding and may
cause you to lose control and/or
fall. When properly secured, the
handlebars will not rotate and/
or move sideways. Note: When
properly secured, the spring-loaded
buttons will be clearly visible
through the holes on the T-tube.
1 Insert and secure the left and
right handlebars by depressing
the spring-loaded buttons and
inserting them into the T-bar.
2 Make certain BOTH handlebars

mechanism, place one foot on the
deck plate and push joint release
lever down to release the T-bar/
Extension Tube from the locked po-
sition. Raise T-bar up until securely
locked in the upright position.
WaRNINg: Keep
your fingers clear of the folding
mechanism when folding or
unfolding the scooter. Make sure
others are standing clear.
WaRNINg: Failure to
properly secure the quick-release
lever may cause the T-bar to slideup
or down while riding which may
cause you to lose control and fall.
Note: The joint lever is spring-
loaded and will automatically lock
in the upright position when fully
upright.
4 Depress the spring loaded button on the T-bar and insert into the
extension tube. Turn the T-bar until the button aligns with the hole on the
extension tube and locks into place. To adjust the height of the handlebars,
open the quick-release lever and slide the T-bar to the desired position and
resecure the quick release lever to lock into place. If the T-bar is raised to the
maximum height, depress the spring loaded button located directly below the
quick release lever to lower the T-bar.
Note: The tension of the quick-
release lever can be adjusted by
tightening or loosening the allen
bolt. Be careful not to over-tighten.
You should always be able to open
and close the quick-release lever by
hand.

q Replacing the Spark cartridge:
Friction during sparking will eventually wear out the replaceable cartridge and cause the scooter to stop making
sparks. Worn out cartridges must be replaced.
WaRNINg: Do not
attempt to replace cartridge
immediately after riding as
cartridge will be hot. Handle only
when cool.
WaRNINg: Keep fingers
clear of Spark Bar hinge and fender
brake.
1 Using your thumbs, press tabs
on both sides of the cartridge to
release from the bracket. Slide car-
tridge away from you and remove
from bracket.
2 Place a new cartridge in back of the bracket making sure to align the slots
on the cartridge with the two legs of the bracket and slide cartridge forward
until you hear a click and the thumb tabs are locked in place.
WaRNINg: Applying
too much pressure on the Spark bar
may cause loss of control.
q Using the Spark bar
When riding, place ball of foot on the Spark bar and gradually apply pressure. Only use enough pressure to cause
sparking action.
NOTE: Using any other part of
the foot or full foot may activate the
brake and prevent sparking action.
CHECk BEFORE RIDINg
NOTE: Sparks and Spark
cartridge life will vary based on
the amount of pressure applied
to the spark bar, the length of
time pressure is applied and
the smoothness of the riding
surface.
q Collar Clamp
Using a 5mm allen key, check that the collar clamp bolt is tightened securely. This item is tightened and quality
inspected at the factory, but there is a slight chance that the effects of shipping or handling may have caused this bolt
to become loose.
q Deck Plate/Steering Column adjusting Screw(s)
Using a 3mm allen wrench and with the scooter in the upright and locked position, adjust the set screw at the base-
board until there is no free-play between the baseboard and the steering column. Be careful not to over-tighten this
screw as it needs only be snug against the steering column. Verify the adjustment by releasing the steering column
from the locked position and folding the scooter. The locking lever should not bind and the folding movement should be
smooth when raising the handlebars. The spring-loaded mechanism should automatically lock and be fully seated in
the upright position.

CHECk BEFORE RIDINg
q Wheels and Bearings
WaRNINg: Wheelies
and other stunt-type riding reduces
your ability to maneuver and control
the scooter. Take the necessary
precautions, such as wearing
appropriate protective gear and
practice in a area safe for stunt
riding and free from obstructions.
Under normal circumstances and conditions, Razor wheels and bearings are maintenance free. Nonetheless, it is
the responsibility of the owner or guardian to periodically inspect the wheels for wear and tear, the axle for proper
tightness, and bearings for side-to-side play and loose parts. When a wheel or wheel bearing develops play, this is an
indication of excess wear and replacement is necessary. Replace immediately with only genuine Razor wheels. Wheels
other than genuine Razor wheels may not be compatible with your Razor scooter. The use of anything other than genu-
ine Razor replacement parts may affect your safety and will void your warranty.
q Cleaning your Scooter
NOTE: Worn wheels, bearings
and Spark cartridges are considered
normal wear-and-tear and are not
covered by the Razor Warranty.
Wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Do not use industrial cleaners or solvents as they may damage the
surfaces. Do not use alcohol, alcohol-based or ammonia-based cleaners as they may damage or dissolve the plastic
components or soften the decals or decal adhesive.

PRE-RIDE CHECkLIST
Loose Parts
Be Careful!
Check and secure all fasteners before every ride. Make sure
the collar clamp, T-bar, quick release lever and handlebar spring
buttons are locked properly in place before riding.
You will see people on TV and maybe even people you know doing
tricks and stunts. These are people who have been practicing on
scooters for a very long time. Do not try something until you are
ready. Avoid steep inclines and don’t ride too fast — you can lose
control and fall. Skateboard parks are not designed for scooters.
Never ride in traffic or on the street and watch your surroundings
for pedestrians, bikers, boarders and skaters.
