WARNING: REGARDING USE OF NON-RAZOR PRODUCTS WITH YOUR RAZOR
SCOOTER. Your electric scooter has been built to Razor’s design specifications. All the original
equipment supplied at the time of sale were selected on the basis of their compatibility with the
frame, fork and all other parts. Certain after-market products may or may not be compatible with
your Razor electric scooter. Consult your retailer or call Razor prior to modifying or replacing
any component with a non-factory specified product.
WARNING: CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING SCOOTER USE. Check local laws and
regulations to see where and how you may use your Razor electric scooter legally. In many
states and local areas scooter riders are required BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check local laws
and regulations regarding laws governing helmet use, age and e scooter operation in your area.

WARNING: Failing to properly adjust and tighten the clamps and
retainers that affix the handlebars and folding system can cause you to
lose control and fall. When properly adjusted, you cannot twist the front
wheel out of line with the handlebars or move the T-tube out of
adjustment. If you can twist or force these components to move or
come off by hand, readjust and properly retighten the clamp
mechanisms.
2. Preparing for First-Time Use
2A. Un-box. Remove contents from box. Remove the foam separators
that protect the various 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. The scooter was
partially assembled and packed at the factory to prevent shipping
damage and there should not be any problems, even if the box has a
few scars or dents. But if there are, contact Razor USA, toll free, at
(866) 467-2967 to resolve any problems.
2B. Handlebars. Insert the “quill” part of the handlebar assembly into
the fork as shown in Figures 2a, 2b and 2c. You may have to loosen the
wedge (as pointed out in 2b) to allow it to slip into the fork. Slide the

quill into the fork until it bottoms on the headset as shown in 2c.
Figure 2a, 2b and 2c. Inserting the handlebar quill into the fork.
Tighten the wedge securely. Using a 6mm hex key wrench, tighten
the wedge by turning the bolt clockwise as shown in Figure 3. Tighten
securely. When the wedge is properly tightened, the handlebars cannot
be twisted out of alignment with the front wheel.
Figure 3. Tighten the wedge using a 6mm allen wrench.
WARNING: Failure to properly tighten the wedge 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 with the front wheel under normal circumstances.

2C. Unfolding the handlebar. Pivot the handlebar assembly upright.
Swing the locking knob to the 12 o’clock position and tighten as shown
in Figure 4. Tighten by hand as tight as possible.
Figure 4. Tighten the locking knob.
WARNING: Keep your fingers clear of the pivoting mechanism
when folding or unfolding the scooter. Make sure others are standing
clear.
NOTE: The cable and wire assembly from the handlebar must
not be wrapped around the steering tube or over the handlebar. The
cables and wires should be routed as shown on the front cover of the
manual. Sharp bends or twisting of the brake cable can cause the brake
to be mushy or drag.
2D. Handlebar height. To adjust the height of the handlebars, unlock
the steering tube by pulling outward on the quick-release lever (Figure
5). Slide the T-tube to the desired position and secure by pushing the
quick release lever (Figures 5a and 5b). The tension of the quick-
release clamping mechanism can be adjusted by tightening or
loosening the Allen bolt (Figure 5c) . Be careful not to over-tighten. You
should always be able to open and close the quick-release lever by
hand and the T-tube should telescope freely with the quick-release
open.

Figure 5c.
WARNING: Failure to properly engage the quick-release clamp
may cause the T-tube to telescope up or down while riding which may
cause you to lose control and fall. With the quick-release properly
adjusted and engaged, the handlebars will not move up or down.
NOTE: Although we make every effort to keep our manual up-to-
date, if your scooter does not look exactly this, then we’ve made
improvements since this document was printed. Check out the Razor
adjustment procedures.
2E. Inflating the tires. The tires are inflated when shipped, but they
invariably will lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing
and your purchase.
Using a bicycle style tire pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve
(Figure 6a), inflate the tires to the psi indicated on the sidewall of the
tire.
Figure 6a.
Figure 6b.

NOTE regarding the E300 rear wheel: Inflating the rear tire of
the E300 requires the use of a special valve extender/adapter, supplied
with the scooter at time of purchase (Figure 7). To inflate the rear tire
align the access hole in the drive sprocket with the tire valve. Thread
the adapter completely onto the valve. Attached pump and inflate to 35
psi.
The valve adapter must be removed immediately after inflating.
Failure to remove the adapter will cause the inner tube and or
adapter to be severed by the rear drive sprocket. Place the adapter
in a safe place for later use.
Figure 7.
Note regarding using an air hose at a gas station. The
pressurized air supplies found at gasoline stations are designed to
inflate high volume automobile tires. These systems are capable of
instantaneously over-inflating the tires. If you decide to use such a
supply to inflate your ties, make sure the pressure gauge is working
prior to inflating the tires. Use very short bursts to inflate to the correct
psi. If you inadvertently over-inflate the tire, release the excess pressure
immediately.
2F. The brake. Your scooter is fitted with a hand-operated brake (Figure
8). To use the brake, squeeze the lever to increase the pressure on the
brake until so you come to a smooth and controlled stop. The brake
lever is fitted with a cable adjuster to compensate for cable stretch
and/or to fine tune the lever movement to brake engagement. To adjust
the play, thread the adjuster in or out (arrows, Figure 8) 1/4 to 1/2 turn
until the desired brake adjustment is attained.

Figure 8.
WARNING: The brake is capable of skidding the tire and throwing
an unsuspecting rider. Practice in an open area free from obstacles until
you are familiar with the brake function. Avoid skidding to a stop as
this can cause you to lose control as well as cause damage the
rear tire.
2G. Charging the battery prior to use. Your scooter may not have a
fully charged battery at the time of purchase. Therefore it is a good idea
to charge the battery prior to use. The charging input, on/off switch and
overload breaker are located under the deck at the front left hand side
as shown in Figure 9.
Figure 9.
The charger has a small window with one LED or two LEDs to indicate
the charge status (Figure 10). Refer to the illustration on the charger
unit for the actual “charging” and “charged” status indications for your
model charger. The initial charge may take from a few minutes to up to
4 hours depending on the level of depletion.

Figure 10.
2H. Circuit breaker. The circuit breaker (next to on/off switch in Figure
9) will automatically shut off the power to the motor in the event an
overload condition is placed on the motor. An excessive overload, such
as too heavy a rider or too steep a hill, could cause the motor to
overheat. If your scooter suddenly stops running, wait a few seconds
and then push the breaker to reset the circuit. Avoid whatever
conditions caused the breaker to trip and avoid repeatedly tripping the
breaker.
3. Safety Check Before Riding
3A. Loose parts. While straddling the Razor Scooter, lift the front up
two or three inches and let go so it can bounce on the ground. Does
everything sound tight? There should not be any unusual rattles or
sounds from loose parts or broken components. If you are not sure, ask
an experienced mechanic to check.
3B. Brake. Check the brake for proper function. When you squeeze the
lever, the brake should provide positive braking action.
3C. Frame, fork and handlebars. Check for cracks or broken
connections. Although broken frames are rare, it is possible for an
aggressive rider to bash into a curb or wall and wreck and bend or
break a frame, fork or handlebar. Get in the habit of inspecting yours
regularly.
3D. Tire inflation. Periodically and regularly check the tire pressure
and reinflate as necessary. If you get a flat tire, the inner tube can be
patched or a new tube can be purchased from Razor.
CAUTION: This product moves when used. Exercise caution and
common sense when riding.

4. Maintenance and Repairs
NOTE: Tires are subject to normal wear and tear. It is the
responsibility of the user to periodically inspect the tires for excess
wear.
maintenance, repair and trouble-shooting procedures.
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN OR BELT TENSION
NOTE: Turn power switch off before maintenance procedures.
E300 chain: If the rear wheel makes loud noises or grinding sounds
during the power-on condition, this indicates the chain is probably
making the noise. This can be caused by the chain being adjusted too
tight during assembly or if the chain becomes dry from lack of lube or
loose from normal wear-and-tear.
If the chain is too tight, or too loose (keeps coming off), then it needs to
be readjusted. If the chain is dry, apply a lube such as WD-40 to the
chain.
To adjust the chain:
1. Loosen the axle (please refer to the illustrations for the E200/E100
belt drive on the next page as the procedure is essentially the same).
2. Loosen the brake anchor (this is attached with the small bolt in the
long slot on the left side of the rear fork)
3. Tighten the tension adjusters on the axle 1/8 to 1/4 turn to tension the
chain. Tighten both adjusters the exact same amount to maintain the
wheel alignment.
Note: this system of adjusters is common to motorcycles and BMX
bicycles so I your are not familiar with it, if you know anyone who is,
they would not have a problem adjusting it for you.
Chain tension: The chain should be "just not-quite snug" in other
words, not taut or sloppy loose. BE CAREFUL NOT TO ADJUST TOO
TIGHT. The tensioning system can easily impart too much tension and
snap the chain or bend the motor output shaft. Turn the adjusters 1/8 to
1/4 turn at a time and recheck the tension each time.
4. Once the tension is good, tighten the axle and brake anchor bolt. Test
run the scooter. Readjust as needed.

E200 and E100 belt:
1. Loosen the axle.
2. Loosen the brake anchor (this is attached with the small bolt in the
long slot on the left side of the rear fork)
3. Tighten the tension adjusters on the axle 1/8 to 1/4 tune to tension
the belt. Tighten both adjusters the exact same amount to maintain the
wheel alignment.
Note: this system of adjusters is common to motorcycles and BMX
bicycles so I your are not familiar with it, if you know anyone who is,
they would not have a problem adjusting it for you.
The belt should be "just taut" in other words snug, but not piano-wire (or
guitar string, etc.) tight. It should be tensioned similar to the fan belt on
an automobile. BE CAREFUL NOT TO ADJUST TOO TIGHT. The
tensioning system can easily impart too much tension and snap the belt
or bend the motor shaft. Adjust 1/8 to -1/4 turn at a time and check the
tension each time.
4. Once the tension is good, tighten the axle and brake anchor bolt. Test
run the scooter. Readjust as needed.
Fig 11. Loosen rear axle. Fig 12. Loosen the brake anchor screw.
Fig 13 and 14. Tighten both axle adjusters equally, 1/8 to 1/4 turn until the belt or chain is
properly tensioned.

WHEEL REMOVAL/REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
Occasionally the rear wheel may need to be removed to replace a worn
tire or fix a punctured inner tube. Tools required: 10mm open end and
socket wrenches, blade screwdriver, two (2) 13mm box wrenches or two
17mm box wrenches.

Figures 29 and 30. Install the axle adjusters and axle nuts. Tighten until they just barely hold the
hardware in place.
Figure 31. Tighten both axle adjusters the same number of turns to tension the drive belt and to
approximately maintain the centering of the wheel.
Figures 32 and 33. Rotate the wheel several times (clockwise when looking at the pulley side). The
belt may drift or “track” to one side of the pulley or the other. In this example it is tracking to the
inside. You want the belt to track in the center as shown on the right. Loosen the adjuster 1/16 to
1/8 turn to track the belt to the center. Watch the belt tension and centering of the wheel! When the
belt is tracking in the center and with the tension confirmed, tighten the axle nuts securely and
tighten the brake housing anchor securely. Test ride and recheck. readjust as needed.
E100 Caliper Brake System
The E100 is equipped with a hand operated caliper brake similar to the
type found on many bicycles and gasoline-powered scooters. The front
brake provides efficient and safe braking under all normal operating

conditions, however caution and practice are recommended for first-
time riders.
OPERATION
1. It is recommended that new users should practice braking technique
in an open area that is safe and free from obstacles.
2. To apply the brake, carefully squeeze the brake lever.
3. The user may wish to apply more or less force on the brake,
depending on the rider's weight and vehicle speed to achieve the
desired rate of deceleration.
ADJUSTMENT AND MAINTENANCE
Under normal conditions, the only maintenance required is to maintain
the correct cable slack.
4. The cable slack should be adjusted to allow approximately a 1/4-inch
gap (4mm - 5mm) at the lever as shown in Figure 34.
5. Cable slack is adjusted by turning the adjusting barrel in or out, as
shown in Figure 35.
6. Periodically, or if the brake performance diminishes, inspect the brake
pads for proper alignment against the rim or excess wear. Refer to
Figure 36 for proper alignment. To realign the brake pads, loosen the
fixing nut (Figure 35) and adjust the pad to contact the rim. Retighten
and test the function, readjust as needed.
NOTE: If you do not have the correct tools or understanding of these
procedures, ask a qualified mechanic to make the adjustments for you.
Most bicycle shops have mechanics that can make these adjustments.

Your driveway. Driveway accidents are frequent and often fatal.
Realize the danger of your own and all other driveways. There may be
obscured vision caused by trees, bushes or cars. Your driveway is not a
launching pad for fast roll-outs! Observe the following driveway safety
tips:
Look left, right and left again before exiting onto sidewalks or into
playground areas.
Stop signs. Running a stop sign is a sure way to get hit by a car and
killed. Remember, always stop at every stop sign or stop light. Always
stop and walk across only when it is clear. Do not assume that drivers
of motor vehicles can see you. In fact, assume that every driver cannot
see you and that they are not paying attention. Observe the following
safety tips:
Stop at all stop signs and lights, regardless of traffic conditions.
Look in every direction of traffic before proceeding to walk across.
Watch especially for oncoming traffic making left turns.
Watch for cars behind you or next to you making right turns.
Wait for traffic to clear before proceeding.
Turning without warning. Children are often struck by cars because
they made unexpected turns into traffic, or they inadvertently veered
into traffic when looking over their shoulder. Observe the following
safety tips for left turns:
Do not cut across the street, cross only at intersections.
Practice looking over your shoulder to the rear without accidentally
turning (do this only in an open space free from traffic and
obstructions).
Riding at night and in low visibility. Do not ride at night or in low
visibility.
Rules of the Road.

Become aware of and learn your local laws and regulations. Most
states and communities have rules regarding helmet use, bicycle
licensing, riding on sidewalks, grinding and so on. It is the
responsibility of parents to make sure their children know and obey
all rules and regulations.
Ride defensively. Assume that pedestrians and others are so
absorbed in their own world that they are not paying any attention to
you and that they will run you down or step out in front of you, all
without any warning.
Watch for obstacles such as pot holes, sewer grates, expansion
cracks, and road or construction debris (such as nails or other
foreign objects) that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve
into traffic or lose control.
Stop at all stop signs and lights.
Never ride with headphones or use a cell phone when riding.
Never carry a passenger.
Never hitch a ride with another vehicle.
Do not weave into traffic or make sudden turns.
Observe and yield the right-of-way as prescribed by local traffic
rules.
Riding a scooter may be a hazardous activity and has inherent dangers
that no amount of care, caution, instruction or expertise can eliminate.
Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the
manufacturer. Activities involving the use of scooters carry the risk of
injury or death.
