SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Riding an electric motor bike can be a hazardous activity.
Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the
manufacturer. Like other electric products, the Pocket Rocket can and is
intended to move, and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or
get into dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or expertise
can eliminate. If such things occur you can be seriously injured or die, even
when using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN
RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.

This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the
consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your electric
motor bike. Because any incident can result in serious injury or even death,
we do not repeat the warning of possible serious injury or death each time
such a possibility is mentioned.

APPROPRIATE RIDER USE AND PARENTAL SUPERVISION

This manual contains important safety information. It is your responsibility to
review this information and make sure that all riders understand all warnings,
cautions, instructions and safety topics and assure that young riders are able
to safely and responsibly use this product. Razor USA recommends that you
periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual with younger
riders, and that you inspect and maintain your children’s product to insure
their safety.

The recommended rider age of 13 years is only an estimate, and can be
affected by the rider’s size, weight or skills. Any rider unable to fit comfortably
on the Pocket Rocket should not attempt to ride it.

A parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride this product
should be based on the child’s maturity, skill and ability to follow
rules.

Keep this product away from small children and remember that this product
is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely
comfortable and competent while operating the product.

DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 170 pounds. Rider weight does not
necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the
Pocket Rocket.

Do not touch the brake or electric motor on your electric motor bike when in
use as they can become very hot.

Refer to the section on safety for additional warnings.

ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations which may
affect the locations where the Pocket Rocket may be used.

Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.

The Pocket Rocket is meant to be used only in controlled environments free
of potential traffic hazards and not on public streets or sidewalks. Do not ride
your electric motor bike in any areas where pedestrian or vehicle traffic is
present.

Do not activate the speed control on the hand grip unless you are on the
electric motor bike and in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding.

This motor bike was manufactured for performance and durability but is not
impervious to damage. Jumping or other aggressive riding can over-stress and
damage any product, including the electric motor bike. The rider assumes all

risks associated with high-stress activity.

Be careful and know your limitations. Risk of injury increases as the degree
of riding difficulty increases. The rider assumes all risk associated with
aggressive riding activities.

Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times.

Never carry passengers or allow more than one person at a time to ride the
electric motor bike.

Never use near steps or swimming pools.

Keep your fingers and other body parts away from the ride chain, steering
system, wheels and all other moving components.

Never use headphones or a cell phone when riding.

Never hitch a ride with another product.

Do not ride the Pocket Rocket in wet or icy weather and never immerse the
electric motor bike in water, as the electrical and ride components could be
damaged by water or create other possibly unsafe conditions.

The Pocket Rocket is intended for use on dry surfaces such as pavement or
flat, level ground without loose debris such as rocks or gravel. Wet, slick,
bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces may impair traction and contribute to
possible accidents. Do not ride the electric motor bike in mud, ice, puddles
or water. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with downhill rides.
Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by use of an electric
motor bike indoors.

Do not ride at night or when visibility is limited.

PROPER RIDING ATTIRE

Always wear proper protective equipment such as an approved safety helmet
(with chin strap securely buckled), elbow pads and kneepads. A helmet may
be legally required by local law or regulation in your area. A long-sleeved
shirt, long pants and gloves are recommended. Always wear athletic shoes
(lace-up shoes with rubber soles), never ride barefooted or in sandals, and
keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels, motor and ride system.

USING THE CHARGER

The charger supplied with the electric motor bike should be regularly
examined for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts, and in the
event of such damage, the motor bike must not be charged until the charger
has been repaired or replaced.

Use only with the recommended charger.

Use caution when charging.

The charger is not a toy. Charger should be operated by an adult.

Do not operate charger near flammable materials.

Unplug charger and disconnect from the battery operated product when not
in use.

Do not exceed charging time.

Always disconnect from the charger prior to wiping down and cleaning your
electric motor bike with liquid.

FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE
WARNINGS INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE WITH
APPROPRIATE CAUTION AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE
OPERATION.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Remove contents from box. Remove the foam separators that protect the components from damage during
shipping. Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint, dents or kinked cables that may have
occurred during shipping. Because the Pocket Rocket is 95 percent assembled and packed at the factory,
there should not be any problems, even if the box has a few scars or dents.

MAKE SURE POWER SWITCH IS TURNED “OFF” BEFORE CONDUCTING ANY
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES.

Estimated Assembly and Set-Up Time

Razor recommends assembly by an adult with experience in bicycle mechanics.
Allow up to 15 minutes for assembly, not including initial charge time.
Allow up to 18 hours for initial charge (see page 3 for charging information).

WARNING:
Do not use your Pocket Rocket
for the first time until you have
charged the battery for at least
18 hours. Failure to do so may
damage your product and void
your warranty.

ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP

q Attaching the Handlebars

1 Swing the handlebars

outward as shown. You may
have to loosen the clamps
to allow the bar to pivot on
the fork.

2 Using a 6mm hex key wrench,

tighten both the left
and right side handlebar clamps
by turning the screws clockwise.
When properly tightened, the
handlebars cannot be twisted out
of alignment.

q Attaching the Fairing

WARNING:

Failure to properly tighten both
sides may cause the handlebars
to dislodge while riding and
may cause you to lose control
and fall. When correctly
tightened, the handlebars will
not rotate out of alignment
under normal circumstances.

1 Remove two rubber protectors

from fairing mount. Remove two
button head screws with rubber
washers from both sides of fairing
mount.

2 Position the fairing and

align holes with holes in fairing
mount. Attach fairing to
mounting points and secure
with screws.

3 If you have trouble aligning

holes, put one screw in place
loosely and maneuver opposite
side into position. Tighten all
screws.

q Inflating the Tires

Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing
and your purchase.

Rear TireFront Tire

1 Using a bicycle-style tire

pump equipped for a Schrader­type valve, inflate the front
tire to the PSI indicated on the
sidewall of the tire.

1 Remove valve extender/

adapter from right handgrip.

2 Push open the access cover

and align the access hole in
the drive sprocket with the
tire valve. Thread the adapter
completely onto the valve and
attache the pump and inflate
to the PSI indicated on the tire
sidewall. Push the access hole
cover back.

WARNING:
Do not use the Pocket Rocket
for the first time until you
have inflated the tires to the
correct PSI. Failure to do so may
damage your motor bike and
void your warranty.

Note: The pressurized air
supplies found at gasoline
stations are designed to inflate
high-volume automobile tires.
If you decide to use such an
air supply to inflate your tires,
first make sure the pressure
gauge is working, then use very
short bursts to inflate to the
correct PSI. If you inadvertently
over-inflate the tire, release the
excess pressure immediately.
