1.1 Starting Notes

• REMOVE ALL PROTECTIVE PACKAGING PIECES BEFORE BEGINNING ASSEMBLY, INCLUDING THAT AT THE TOP OF THE STEM.
• THE DIRECTIONS GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL—RIGHT, LEFT, FRONT/FORWARD, AND REAR/BACK—ARE ORIENTED AS THE RIDER WOULD SEE THEM WHEN STANDING ON THE SCOOTER. THE “RIGHT SIDE” OF THE JUPITER, FOR EXAMPLE, IS THE SIDE WHERE THE RIDER’S RIGHT HAND WILL BE.

1.2 Unfolding & Folding the Scooter

• WHEN TO UNFOLD: FOR ASSEMBLY AND RIDING
• WHEN TO FOLD: FOR STORAGE AND TRANSPORT

1. HOLDING THE LOCKING LATCH STEADY WITH ONE HAND, USE THE OTHER HAND TO LOOSEN THE KNOB BY TURNING IT COUNTERCLOCKWISE FOR 2–3 ROTATIONS.
2. PULL OPEN THE LOCKING LATCH.
3. PULL THE FOLDING LEVER UP TOWARDS THE TOP OF THE STEM. HOLD IT THERE WHILE YOU RAISE THE STEM UPRIGHT (TO UNFOLD THE SCOOTER) OR LOWER THE STEM TOWARDS THE DECK (TO FOLD THE SCOOTER).
4. ENSURE THAT THE STEM “CLICKS” INTO PLACE IN THE FOLDED OR UNFOLDED POSITION.
5. RELEASE THE FOLDING LEVER.
6. HOLD THE LOCKING LATCH STEADY WITH ONE HAND WHILE YOU TIGHTEN THE KNOB BY TURNING IT CLOCKWISE.
7. PUSH THE LOCKING LATCH CLOSED.
8. CHECK THAT THE STEM IS SECURE.

TROUBLESHOOTING: IF YOU CANNOT OPEN OR CLOSE THE LOCKING LATCH, THE KNOB MAY BE TOO TIGHT. LOOSEN THE KNOB BY TURNING IT COUNTERCLOCKWISE FOR 1/2 ROTATION AT A TIME UNTIL YOU CAN UTILIZE THE LATCH.

IMPORTANT: NEVER RIDE WITHOUT THE STEM CLICKED INTO THE UPRIGHT POSITION AND THE LOCKING LATCH CLOSED AND TIGHT.

1.3 Attaching the Handlebars

1. UNFOLD THE SCOOTER SO THAT THE STEM IS UPRIGHT.
2. UNSCREW THE PRE-ATTACHED BOLT FROM THE NUT IN THE STEM BY TURNING IT COUNTERCLOCKWISE WITH THE SCREWDRIVER TIP OF THE 2-BIT TOOL. (YOU MAY HAVE TO HOLD THE NUT STEADY WITH A FINGER TO LOOSEN AND REMOVE THE BOLT.) SET THE HARDWARE ASIDE.
3. POSITION THE HANDLEBAR BASE OVER THE TOP OF THE STEM SUCH THAT THE RAISED LINE ON THE INSIDE OF THE HANDLEBAR BASE IS IN LINE WITH THE INDENTED CHANNEL ON THE TOP OF THE SCOOTER STEM.
4. SLIDE THE HANDLEBAR ONTO THE SCOOTER STEM.
5. PUSH DOWN AND ADJUST UNTIL THE HOLES IN THE SIDES OF THE HANDLEBAR BASE ARE ALIGNED WITH THE HOLES ON THE SIDES OF THE STEM.
6. INSERT THE BOLT THROUGH THE ALIGNED HOLES ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE OF THE HANDLEBAR UNTIL THE END OF IT IS VISIBLE THROUGH THE LEFT-SIDE HOLES. IMPORTANT: PLACE THE BOLT ON THE RIGHT SIDE WHEN FACING THE FRONT OF THE SCOOTER FROM THE RIDING POSITION.
7. PLACE AND HOLD THE NUT AT THE END OF THE BOLT IN THE ALIGNED HOLES ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HANDLEBAR.
8. TIGHTEN THE BOLT INTO THE NUT BY TURNING IT CLOCKWISE WITH THE SCREWDRIVER TIP OF THE 2-BIT TOOL.

4. CLOSE THE STEM CLAMP LATCH AND TIGHTEN THE BOLT BY TURNING IT CLOCKWISE WITH THE ALLEN KEY.
5. CHECK THAT THE HANDLEBAR IS SECURE.

IMPORTANT: THE STEM PIN ALONE WILL NOT KEEP THE STEM SECURE. MAKE SURE THE STEM CLAMP IS TIGHTENED AND CLOSED BEFORE RIDING.

TROUBLESHOOTING: IF YOU CANNOT OPEN OR CLOSE THE LATCH, THE BOLT ON THE CLAMP MAY BE TOO TIGHT. LOOSEN THE BOLT 1/2 ROTATION AT A TIME UNTIL YOU CAN UTILIZE THE LATCH.
