Riding Instructions This guide assumes that you already know how to ride a standard scooter. Before you try to ride an electric scooter, you should be very familiar with controlling and balancing a normal scooter. Caution If you do not have cycling experience, an e-scooter is too dangerous to ride. Do not begin learning to ride a scooter using an e-scooter. Important Notes • Escooters are Fast! E-scooters are capable of traveling at higher speeds than many scooter riders are accustomed to.
Inspecting your Electric Scooter Always inspect your e-scooter before you ride it, to make sure its safety features are operating properly. Many accidents can be avoided with routine inspections. Once you are comfortable with your e-scooter, you will be able to detect small changes in the way it feels. If anything changes between uses, make sure to have it properly examined. Also, be sure to listen for changes in the sounds your e-scooter makes over time.
Safety Tips Please keep the following in mind to prevent any unwanted injury or damage.
Turning Signal Lights Your e-scooter has turn signal lights. The turn signal activator is on the left handlebar. Push it left or right to activate it to indicate that you are turning in the appropriate direction, and press the middle of the button to turn it off. The turn signals also emit a noise, to ensure that everyone knows you are turning. This turn signal cannot be disabled without also disabling the visual signal.
Operating Instructions Getting Started Before the first use, you must charge your scooter completely. This should take approximately 8 to 12 hours. Getting On/Off Before getting on or off your scooter, always make sure that the keys are not in the ignition and that the scooter is off. This is a safety measure to prevent any unwanted injury due to accidental engaging of levers. Make sure the door is completely closed before moving.
Steering Steering the scooter is effortless and simple. Before you begin your practice, ensure that there are no obstacles in the way. To steer, simply rotate the tiller (handlebars) to the desired direction; the more you rotate, the more sharp the turn. Begin by slowly moving forward and steering the tiller at small angles; gradually increase the angle for your turn to familiarize yourself with the maximum turning radius.
The Battery The Boomerbuggy series utilizes two maintenance free, sealed lead acid batteries. Battery performance is affected by various factors including: temperature, terrain, the weight of the user, and overall usage for the batteries. The battery level indicator is only a guide for judging the amount of charge in the batteries. The true charge of the batteries will display once the scooter is in drive.
Charging your E-scooter Charging your e-scooter is a simple process. You require the following: • The charger that came with your e-scooter. • A 115V household electrical outlet. Charger Warning Only use the chargers that were supplied with your e-scooter. Using chargers that do not have specifications identical to those which came with the e-scooter could irreparably damage your e-scooter’s battery and electrical systems, and may cause injury. To charge your e-scooter, follow these steps: 1.
Battery Care Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery’s optimal performance. If you do not follow these suggestions, your battery may lose its ability to maintain a charge and might have to be replaced sooner than would otherwise be necessary. • Charge it: Charge your battery immediately after riding it. • Full Charge: Do not allow the battery to run down completely and lie in storage without a charge. This significantly reduces the battery’s lifespan and may cause damage.
Cold Weather and your Battery Below 10 degrees Celsius, the battery will not work as well as it would in warmer temperatures. While Lithium-Ion batteries perform better than Lead-Acid batteries in temperature extremes, both will experience reduced performance in cold temperatures. Also, repeatedly riding the e-scooter in cold temperatures may cause your battery to have to be replaced sooner. Handling the Battery The battery contains large amounts of electrical power.
Replacement and Disposal After approximately 300 charges, a lead-acid battery will need to be replaced. A lithium-ion battery will last approximately 1500 charges. When the battery has to be replaced, you will notice that your battery cannot carry as much of a charge as it could initially. Contact your local Daymak dealer to purchase a new battery. When replacing your battery, dispose of it at a proper municipal battery recycling facility. If none is available, please contact your local Daymak dealer.
