5. Helpful Tips

1. Safety guidelines

1.1 Pre-ride activities

Before riding scooter make sure that:

• The charging plug is out of the socket

• The battery is su ciently charged

• The lighting, turn signals, and horn function properly

• The mirrors are adjusted for proper use

• There is the correct air pressure and proper tread depth in tires

• The brakes work properly (braking test while pushing the scooter)

• There is the correct level of braking ﬂ uid and that the brake pads are not worn out

• It is easy to turn the handlebars without resistance, fully left and right

• There is proper belt tention

1.2 Clothing

• Always ride in proper clothes and proper helmet.

• Wear tight ﬁ tting and comfortable clothing

• Wear proper boots (don’t ride in high heels, ﬂ ip-ﬂ ops, or similar open footgear)

Inadequate clothing may become a threat to safe riding!

1.3 Riding technique

• Vehicle should be ridden carefully and sensibly

• Always hold the handlebars with two hands

• While turning the rider and passenger should tilt along with the scooter

• Particular wariness is recommended while riding on poorly hardened or wet road surfaces

• Pay attention to atypical sounds or behavior of the scooter while riding

1.4 Carrying cargos and passengers

• In order to carry objects or bags one should explicitly use top case, under seat trunk or a hook for bags. The maximum weight allowance for top case is 5 kg.

• Maximum scooter weight allowance must not be exceeded (150kg including passengers’ weight)

• The scooter is allowed to carry maximum 2 persons

1.5 After riding

• Check if the battery needs charging

Riding with low level of battery signiﬁ cantly decreases its life.

Battery life can be extended by recharging it each time with use of originally installed GOVECS charger. There is no risk of overcharging, because after reaching maximum charging level the charger disconnects automatically (even though the fen is still working).

Battery should be charged each time it is possible since it extends its lifetime. Charging phase is visible on Batery signal light on speedometer. Avoid riding with not fully charged battery since it decreases its lifetime. There is no possibility to overcharge the battery.

Important note: battery requires to be charged at least once a month, even if you do not use your scooter. Do not load the battery at temperature lower than -10 degrees.

Hook for bags

2.14 Lighting

Each time, before riding the lighting installation should be checked in respect of its functionality, damages, and settings.

• Head-light („+” high beam) and parking light

• Front and rear turn signals

• Tail light

• Brake light for front and rear brake

• Number-plate light

Due to the fact that the LED energy-saving bulbs were used in GOVECS scooters, in case of abnormal functioning or damage of lighting installation, its repair should be ordered at GOVECS service station.

2.15 Tires

It is necessary to check tires before riding for possible damages or lack of air.

Too low air pressure or worn out tires have negative impact on the scooter’s performance during riding and reducing the scooters’ range.

Tires can be replaced only at the GOVECS service station.

Air pressure in tires can be checked and adjusted at every petrol station. Pressure in tires should be checked once a week and after longer periods of downtime.

Airpressure Without load With load (2 persons)

Front 2,5 bar 2,6 bar

Rear 2,5 bar 2,8 bar

2.16 Brakes

Braking system is the safety system of the vehicle. For personal safety one should particularly consider condition of braking system.

The following elements of braking system should be checked before riding:

1. Braking ﬂ uid level (see point 2.17).

2. Seal of the braking system.

3. Performance control.

In order to check performance of the brakes the operator should push the scooter several meters. While pushing squeeze the front brake and then the rear brake, one at a time. During braking test the scooter should be ﬁ rmly held, which will prevent it from falling over.

Note! Maintenance works and repair of the braking system are only allowed at GOVECS service stations.

2.17 Control of braking liquid level

Braking liquid level should be checked each time before riding.

• Position the vehicle on the center stand

• Turn the handlebar to the left

• Check the level on the sight-glass from the right side of the vehicle - It must ﬁ t between upper and lower edge of the sight-glass.

Absence of visible liquid in the sight-glass means damage of braking system.

Scooter should not be used until the braking system is repaired at the GOVECS service station.

2.18 Control of belt tention

The belt tension should be 80-85 Hz which can be measured with a standard Trummeter for measuring belt tensions. Please contact your service station for measurment and tention adjustment.

3. Taking care of the vehicle

In order to maintain the vehicle properly certain instructions must be observed.

• Clean the vehicle with sponge and clean water on regular basis.

• Do not use hard sponges or scratching materials for insects removal.

• Varnished covered elements should be cleaned with use of varnish preparations.

• Plastic parts should only be cleaned with agents dedicated to plastic elements.

• Make sure that the anticorrosive aerosol sprays are not used on braking system elements, varnished parts and plastic elements.

• The vehicle parked outdoor should be protected with a breathing cover. Standard covers made of artiﬁ cial material cause water condensation under the cover and consequently make the scooter corroded.

Under no circumstances can the high-pressure washer be used for the scooter cleaning.
