MANUAL
EV4 MOUNTAIN BOARD
2019-03-01 VERSION 1.00 Page 14 of 21
To avoid injury when using EV4, wear protective equipment. Equipment includes bicycle helmet, knee and elbow
pads. Protective gloves are recommended during repairs and maintenance.
10. Use
10.1. How to operate the EV4
We start the ride by switching on the skateboard and remote control. If the LED lights signal the connection of the
remote control with the vehicle and show that the batteries of thevehicle and remote are charged, the Mountain Board is ready
for operation. You can start to move in two ways. Take a comfortable position on the skateboard, with the center of gravity
placed low (never drive on the upraised legs) and legs spaced wider than the arms, gently push the remote's acceleration stick
forward to move the vehicle. When starting to move at full speed, the center of gravity should also be transferred to the leading
leg, otherwise rider may be thrown off the skateboard. The second way is to push off with one leg letting vehicle move and
then use the remote add speed. Braking starts once the remote stick is pushed down in the opposite direction to accelerating.
In case of sudden braking, the center of gravity should be transferred to the rear leg. Correct leg formation is also important
when changing directions of riding. Turning should be carried by moving the center of gravity on toes or heels of both feet.
Advanced riders can work their own style of riding.

10.3. Charging
EV4 MOUNTAIN BOARD is supplied with a Li-Ion 36V, 13Ah battery.In order to properly charge the batteries,
use the charger supplied with the vehicle. You will need a special 36 V charger for Li-ion batteries. It is forbidden to use a
charger other than the original charger. Using a charger other than the original charger may result in electrical damage, short
circuit, fire and personal injury. It may also cause permanent damage to the battery and the vehicle's electrical system.
The charger must first be connected to the vehicle then to the network. Charging socket is located on the battery pack
under handle. Pull the battery handle and then plug in the charger plug.
The charger must be disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is fully charged (charge will not occur after
100%). It is indicated with a green lamp on the charger. Secure the vehicle's charging socket when charging is complete. After
the charge is complete, one can start the vehicle with the key. Disconnect the charger before starting the vehicle. Do not
connect any equipment or short connectors to the charger socket. The charger for the EV4 does not charge other batteries.
It is forbidden to use a fuse of other parameters. This may cause damage to the electrical system and fire.

11. Setup
11.1. Suspenssion
Users that weigh more will have less resistance from the board when turning.
Too regulate hardness suspension you can change rubber bushings located in the front and rear suspension.
11.2. Electrical speed control
Controling speed is made by remote controler.
12. Maintenance
Please observe the following maintenance recommendations:
➢The maintenance and servicing times given in this manual must be strictly observed.
➢Any changes have to be approved by the manufacturer.
➢To prevent premature wear of EV4, diligently clean and maintain them at regular intervals.
➢Correct maintenance ensures that the service life is extended and the level of security remains unchanged.
➢Carry out maintenance procedures using personal protective equipment (protective gloves).
➢Do not throw waste into the environment as a result of maintenance. Dispose of them in accordance with applicable
regulations.
➢Some maintenance and repairs require the use of specialized tools and knowledge of how to perform such repairs.
Therefore, repairs must be carried out only by the manufacturer or in the place indicated by the manufacturer.
➢Most of the parts used to make EV4 are aviation grade. Fabrication of components from other materials will not
provide adequate strength and consequently will not ensure proper operation of the vehicle.
➢The frame and other parts of the vehicle are riveted with aviation grade rivets. Repairing the vehicle with other rivets
than recommended by the manufacturer can reduce the strength of the individual components or damage the vehicle.
12.1. Wheels
EV4 Mountain Board is equipped in four eight inch TRAMPA wheels with aluminium hub elements . Too low or too
high pressure in the tires can cause damage to: tires, wheel rims, suspension and cause excessive electricity consumption. It is
very important that the tread of the tire is correct and not worn out. Too much tread wear can cause tire breakage, poor vehicle
grip and poor tread. Uneven tread wear may indicate wheel distortion, suspension failure, incorrect tire pressure, improper tire

MANUAL
EV4 MOUNTAIN BOARD
2019-03-01 VERSION 1.00 Page 18 of 21
operation, improper tire assembly, etc. When the tire is punctured or has low pressure it needs to be replaced immediately.
Always remove air from the wheel before replacing the tire. The front tires and inner tube can be replaced without removing
the wheels. The rear wheel must be removed before the tire can be taken off. Be careful when disassembling the wheel. The
cable leading to the motor can easily be damaged during unsuitable dismantling and assembly .
12.2. Bolts and glued parts
All screws used in EV4 are screws with a higher strength class. Replacing them can only take place with screws of
adequate strength. The minimum strength class of screws is 8.8. Some screws such as the rocket axles have a strength class of
12.9. Almost all used nuts are self-locking nuts and are one time use only. After unscrewing, replace them with new ones.
Some nuts, for example when attaching the rocker arms for safety reasons, are blinded. In screw connections where self-
locking nuts are not used for safety, a self-locking safety thread is used: Loctite 243. Loctite 603 is used in some places, such
as bearing housings, wheel alignment, and engine rack mounting. Removal and reassembly of these components requires the
use of specialized tools, preheating when disassembling and reuse of glue during assembly.
12.3. Vehicle transmission
The vehicle transmission consists of two pulleys and a toothed belt on one side and the other. For correct operation of the gear
unit, the correct drive belt tension is required. The strap must be strapped properly so that it does not jerk and can’t be
stretched too much. Too weak tension of the belt can cause it to jump and consequently lower the power transmitted to the
wheels, damage the belt, and damage the gears. Too strong strapping may damage the strap, damage the motor, damage the
bearings, case more power consumption. The belt drive should work dry without lubrication.
The state of the gears (especially the small wheel on the engine) is very important. Too much wear on the gears may indicate
that the vehicle was not properly operated, was used in too much dustiness, sand, the belt was incorrectly tightened, or the
wrong belt lubricant was used. Too much wear on the gears can cause the belt to jump and consequently reduce the power
transmitted to the wheels and damage the belt. If the gears are worn out, replace them with new ones.
12.4. Lubrication
Important components requiring lubrication are ball joints in the suspension system and in the steering. The M8, M6
ball joints are in suspension. The right lubricant for these is engine or gear oil used in automotive industry.. They should be
lubricated every 100-400 km. The period in which the articulations must be lubricated depends on the style of riding, the type
of terrain, the mass of the user, the dirt and sanding. If the vehicle is standing unused for more than 2 months then the joints
should also be lubricated before using the vehicle after such a break. If the joints become too loose, replace them with new
ones, keeping the same length of the elements when replacing them.
13. Fixing
EV4 repair may only be carried out by specially trained AERO-SERVICE personnel. EV4 repairers must adhere to
the factory guidelines. Failure to comply with the recommendations may result in loss of health.
WARNING! Performing such operations requires appropriate technical competence or specific skills so that
they can only be performed by qualified personnel with experience gained and recognized in the
performance of their activities.
