What’s In The Box?
Bolzzen Gladiator
You feel that right? That excitement, that buzz that can only come from the knowledge that
you’re about to unbox something so freaking awesome! We get it. In your Bolzzen Gladiator
box you’ll find the following items to get you going in no time!
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
1) Bolzzen Gladiator
2)Charging brick, and cords
3)A Bolzzen multi-tool
4)Rubber wheel nut covers (x4)
5)Welcome card with information to get to this manual (good job!)
After you’ve unboxed all your goodies, now comes the time to unfold your Bolzzen Gladiator and
get it ready to rock! When it comes to folding and unfolding, everything’s about the blue main
clamps at the base of the stem.
To unfold, unlock these guys and pivot the stem upwards. Once in place, pull the sleeve down
firmly until it reaches the bottom.
Then comes the MOST IMPORTANT part to eliminate the dreaded stem wobble! Tighten each
clamp up nice and tight, but the secret here is to go back over your work and retighten them
both! It’s better to be safe than wobbly. Ensuring a tight fit delivers you a stem as solid as a rock!
Getting Started.
GETTING STARTED.
Setting Up For Your First Charge.
Folding And Unfolding.
It’s very important to make sure before your first ride, your Bolzzen Gladiator has had a full charge.
There is some juice in the battery from the factory, but not enough.
So, get your charger from the box, plug it into the wall, turn it on and then carefully plug the
charger into either of the deck mounted ports. Ensure that you screw in the the charger to get a
solid, safe connection.
The light on the charger should be red while charging and turn green once fully charged.
Getting Started.

Setting Up For Your First Charge.
Warning:
Make sure that the temperature isn’t in the
extremes (below 5°C or above 40°C)
otherwise certain safeguards within the
charger and battery will trigger and the
charging process will stop.
Pro Tip:
There are two charge ports on the deck to
enable two chargers, for double time
charging!
Safety Gear.
ENJOY WITH SAFETY.
We want you having fun on your new Bolzzen Gladiator, but we also want you
to keep having fun! Safety gear is not only required by some local Laws and
Regulations, but it also makes sure that you’re protected if things don’t go
according to plan.
Always ride with an approved helmet that meets the Australian Standard,
AS1698:1988 and has the standard label showing.
Closed in shoes and, depending on your skill level, knee and elbow pads aren’t
a bad idea either.
ENJOY WITH SAFETY.

Adjusting The Brakes.
Your Bolzzen Gladiator is fitted with Hydraulic Brakes. This means, you’ll be
experiencing fantastic breaking performance, and you don’t really need to
tweak or change them very often at all!
Keep to your servicing schedule and make sure your Bolzzen Gladiator is
being serviced at least every 1,000kms and you should have many fun, safe
adventures!
Keeping it Tight.
Over time and distance, some components of your Bolzzen Gladiator may
become a little less tight than they should be.We recommend at least once
a month (for avid riders), take a run around your Scooter with the Bolzzen
Multi-tool and make sure all screws and bolts are tight and secure –but be
sure not to over tighten, if it feels too tight, it probably is.
