WARNING

The Switch Board
™
trucks are adjusted at the factory to the stiffest
setting (for beginner use).The stiff setting provides the greatest stability.
As your child becomes more comfortable and is better able to balance on
Switch Board
™
, you can adjust the trucks (to a loose setting) to allow
greater steering control.
Counter-Clockwise
for Loose Setting
• Turn Switch Board™upside-down
on a flat surface. Locate both trucks
(on each end).
Hint: Be sure to place a sheet or
towel on the surface to protect it.
• Using an adjustable wrench:
-Turn each nut clockwise for a
stiff setting.
-Turn each nut counter-clockwise
for a loose setting.
Hint: You should not need to loosen
the nut more than a few turns for a
loose setting.
IMPORTANT! Check to be sure you
have not loosened the trucks too
much! Pull on both trucks.The trucks
should remain on Switch Board™.If
you can remove either of them, you
have loosened the truck(s) too much.
Replace the truck(s) and tighten
the nut(s) clockwise with an adjust-
able wrench.
