INTRODUCTION
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual was written to help you get the most performance, comfort,
enjoyment, and safety when your child is riding his or her new three wheeled
scooter. It is important for you to understand your child’s new three wheeled
scooter, how your child should use it and what you need to do to keep your
child safe.
GENERAL WARNING
Riding can be a hazardous activity even under the best of circumstances.
Proper maintenance of your child’s new three wheeled scooter is your
responsibility as it helps reduce the risk of injury. This manual contains many
“WARNINGS” concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect
your child’s new three wheeled scooter. Many of the warnings could say, “your
child may lose control and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or
even death, we do not repeat the warning of possible injury or death when-
ever the risk of falling leads to a “WARNING”. NOTE: The illustrations in this
manual are used simply to provide examples; the components of your child’s
new three wheeled scooter might differ. In addition, some of the parts shown
might be optional and not part of your child’s new three wheeled scooter’s
standard equipment. The following manual is only a guide to assist you.
A SPECIAL NOTE FOR PARENTS
Your child’s new three wheeled scooter is distributed by Dynacraft BSC,
Inc. and is intended for riding on flat surfaces. Uses such as aggressive off-
road riding, downhill riding, jumping tricks, stunting and other extreme uses
are not recommended. If you allow your child to do such things with this
scooter you must assume sole responsibility for any harm to your child that
may result.
It is a tragic fact that scooter accidents involve children. As a parent or
guardian, you bear the responsibility for the activities and safety of your minor
child. Among these responsibilities are to make sure that your child’s new
three wheeled scooter, which your child is riding, is in good repair and safe
operating condition; that you and your child have gone over the use, operation
and safety section of this manual; that you and your child have learned, and
understand what to do and what not to do with your child’s new three wheeled
scooter, and the common sense rules of gravity, safe speed and
courteous riding.

USE, OPERATION, AND SAFETY
As a parent, you should read this manual before letting your child ride his
or her new three wheeled scooter. The age grade of 3 to 5 years old is based
on United States government guidance on child development and appropriate
toys, but young children are all different. If your child walks and runs with con-
fidence, then the three wheeled scooter will help your child develop balancing
skills and learn about steering.
You can not expect your child to understand how
difficult it is to stop on hills or at speed, and your close supervision and sound
limits about speed and grade are required for your child’s safety. So encourage
play and having fun with the three wheeled scooter, but keep it on flat surfaces,
always wear shoes (never barefoot, sandals or flip flops), and avoid traffic and
pedestrians.Remember, only you are the best judge of whether your child
is at the appropriate development stage for safe play with this scooter.
Always have your child use safety equipment and appropriate clothes and
shoes. Safety equipment is a helmet, knee pads and elbow pads. The helmet
is not only a good idea but required in many communities. To protect your
child, the helmet must comply with CPSC, 16 CFR Section 1203 requirements
and be worn correctly.

The three wheeled scooter is intended to allow children to learn at their own
pace while feeling safe that they are not going to fall. Have them start by hav-
ing one foot on the three wheeled scooter and the other foot pushing off the
ground. The action is like walking and they will progress as they become com-
fortable. Your responsibility is to set limits on speed and appropriate location
for play. Be aware that young children can often master riding, but will still lose
their balance and fall while at play. So part of your supervision is that they not
leave the three wheeled scooter or other toys around where they play as they
may fall on them. It is also your responsibility to maintain the three wheeled
scooter after correctly assembling it.
Children should be made aware of all possible riding hazards and correct
riding behavior before they take off on the scooter. Please explain to them as
often as necessary:
• Always wear a helmet and other safety equipment.
• Always keep the chin strap on the helmet securely buckled.
• Observe the age and weight limitations on the cover of this manual.
• Never have more than one rider and never try to tow anything.
• Do not ride at night.
• Do not ride in wet weather.
• Obey all local laws about cycling.
• Do not ride near swimming pools, ditches or drop offs.
• Do not ride if parts are broken or worn until fixed or replaced by your parent.
• Always ride on smooth, flat surfaces and avoid too much speed.
• Do not ride on streets, around cars, on hills, barefoot, or in skateboard or
vehicle traffic.
• Speed is a danger, avoid excessive speed going down hill; also avoid stunts,
jumps and bumps.
• Avoid sharp turns, bumps, drainage grates, trick stages, ramps, half pipes,
or skateboard parks.

CAUTION
Dynacraft does not encourage stunting, trick riding, ramp riding, jumping,
aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain, riding in severe climates, riding

safety and maintenance checks recommended in this manual, if the rider
does not wear a helmet, if the rider does not follow the rules of the road, if

extreme terrain riding. Parents that allow their children to ride taking such
actions will assume their own risk and the risk of injury to their child, and
