Why won't my
scooter start?
First make
sure you have the proper gas and oil mixture before
trying to start scooter. This is the most common
mistake people make. Mixture should be 32:1
regardless of what the manual says. Then you have to
pump the primer bulb on the underneath side of the
carburetor. Pump until you can see that gas has
reached the carburetor. Try and start your scooter.
Don't pull the cord more than 4-5 times. If the
scooter doesn't sound like it's about to start then
turn the throttle a bit while pulling the cord. Try
this 4-5 times. If you still are not started then
your carburetor may need adjusting.

Adjusting
the carburetor for all models except the charger.
From the
left side of the scooter you will see a flat head
screw toward the bottom of the carburetor. Turn this
screw all the way in or clockwise then turn it out
counterclockwise 2 1/2 turns. This is the factory
setting for the air mixture.
If your
scooter doesn't start right up and you have gone
through the start up troubleshooting then call our
tech support at 702-889-1741.

Why does my
chain keep falling off?
This can be
caused by a bent sprocket or the chain isn't aligned
properly. The chain can be adjusted in 2 ways. First
you want to make sure the rear tire is straight.
Just eyeball it and you should be able to tell if
its straight or not. If its not, loosen the nuts
that hold the wheel in place. Adjust the tension
screws until wheel is straight. If your chain still
looks crooked then you need to adjust the motor. To
adjust the motor simply lay the scooter on its side
so you can get to the bottom of the motor. You will
see 3 screws. Loosen all 3 screws just a little.
Straighten the motor until the chain looks straight
and your chain should never fall off again.

How do I
adjust my brakes?
You will see
an adjustable screw next to your brake lever. Turn
it counterclockwise until brake is how you want it.
If brake still doesn't work good enough then you
need to adjust the wire where it connects to the
caliper or drum. Loosen the nut that holds the wire.
Pull the wire tighter and tighten back the nut.
