CONGRATULATIONS
on your purchase of a Go-Kiddo T6.
With the T6, we wanted to invite children to step outside and ride. The intention is to get
them into exercising the whole body while playing. Go-Kiddo's unique ride is extremely
engaging and offers the inherent fun and challenges of riding and propelling. The Go-Kiddo
ride is intuitive and natural. It's what we call an active ride. The rider and vehicle form a
propulsion system: the rider is part of the vehicle dynamics and vice-versa.
THE BENEFITS
Kids enhance their overall health and well-being by utilizing all of the major muscle groups
and develop cardiovascular fitness in a low-impact and mentally engaging manner.
Additionally, riding a Go-Kiddo CS provides enhanced opportunities for brain development
because the rider crosses the three midlines of the body while riding (as discussed in the
field of Educational Kinesiology). The Go-Kiddo ride also helps to build coordination,
timing, agility, balance and confidence. Go-Kiddo carving scooters level the playing field for
kids of all ages and skills. Everyone can ride and perform well. A proven adult fitness
activity and a huge success in school PE programs across the country, this healthy and fun
activity can be enjoyed for a lifetime.
Go-Kiddo offers fitness disguised
as fun for the whole family!

WARNINGS
to parents
ŸThe Go-Kiddo T6 is a wheeled vehicle and, by its nature, riding it can pose the risk of
falling and consequent injuries to the rider.
ŸWe strongly advise to ride in a controlled environment during daylight hours on a wide,
smooth, dry and predictable surface.
ŸProtect your children's head with an ANSI approved safety helmet. Never take chances.
ŸAdditional protection can be provided with the use of knee and elbow pads.
ŸPlease supervise your children while riding, teaching them the basic rules of riding
safely and around other people.
ŸAvoid surfaces with sand, gravel, cracks, wet, grass, as the wheels may slip or get stuck
throwing the rider off the vehicle and causing a fall.
ŸDo not play on streets.
ŸDo not play at night.
ŸDo not ride downhill.
ŸDo not lean back and pull the handlebar up (wheelie).
ŸStep on the middle of the foot deck area.
ŸWear appropriate shoes and tie the shoe laces. Do not ride barefoot or with sandals.
ŸDo not use loose clothes that may get caught by the movement of the handlebar.
ŸDo not lean over the handlebar.
ŸRiding more than one person can be unsafe and easy to lose control.
ŸDo not coast with hands free - always hold with both hands on the handlebar.
ŸAlways apply both brakes evenly. Practice braking.
ŸNever exceed the weight limit of 45kg (100lbs).

BRAKES
The T6 Jogo brakes are scrub brakes. A metal pad is
pushed straight against the tire creating friction and
stopping the wheel.
Attention: when applying brakes, rider must avoid loc
king and skidding the wheels -
it will create a flat spot on the wheel circumference,
damaging the wheel - rider will notice a bumpy roll.
BRAKE ADJUSTMENT:
The pad must be adjusted leaving a working gap
between the pad and tire – 3mm (1/8”)
At the pad you will find a bolt that holds the brake
cable. Loosen the bolt, slide and stretch the cable, and
re-tighten the bolt to adjust the brake. You may place
any spacer of 3mm (1/8”) in between the pad and tire
while performing the adjustment and cable stretch. It's
recommended the use a pair of pliers to pull and
stretch the cable.
The brake should work efficiently at a half way squeeze
of the brake lever at the handlebar.

POLYURETHANE WHEELS
PU wheels perform better on smooth surface.
Small diameter wheels may get suddenly stopped by cracks, gravels, grass, tree branches
or any small debris on the surface, and may cause a fall.
PU wheels may slide or slip over sand or wet surface and may cause a fall.
Observe the play area and remove debris. Instruct children to look for and avoid these
elements.
Avoid locking the wheels while applying brakes. Apply brakes gently and evenly to both
sides. Locking the wheels and skidding will create flat spots on the tire circumference,
permanently damaging the wheels. You will feel a bumpy ride and bumpy braking. If this
happen, replace the damaged wheel with a new one.
Wheels should last long with normal ride - approx 200 miles.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
ŸKeep the tools supplied with the product.
ŸRegularly check the bolts by tightening.
ŸRaise and drop the whole vehicle from around 6 inches high and listen for clunky
loose sounds.
ŸSpin the wheels to confirm they spin freely (due to brake and bearing) and are not
bumpy.
ŸTest and adjust the brakes if needed.
ŸCheck the alignment of the handlebar to the front wheel.
ŸStore the vehicle in a dry area. Do not leave exposed to rain or sprinklers.
ŸAvoid sand on the wheels and cambering area.
ŸIf exposed to salty water, rinse it thoroughly, shake and let it dry in a ventilated area.
HOW TO USE
SCOOTING, CORNERING, CARVING, PROPELLING.
Children will start by pushing, kicking it to get some speed and carving wide turns. It can
be used as a kick scooter… but the T6 is much more than that.
The rider can keep the vehicle moving by shifting their weight side to side while turning
and leaning with the frame into the turn. This coordinated action is as intuitive as it is
natural. It resembles the skiing motion.

HOW TO PLAY
Using cones spaced in a line will force the rider to carve left and right like an slalom
course. You can create many different courses.
Throwing a ball (of soccer ball size) on the court will invite the rider to keep hitting and
chasing the ball with the front wheel - stopping, starting, turning around and managing
the timing to move the ball.
Follow the Leader: Another rider (on any scooter or bicycle) can be the leader and the
rider will have to follow the same path as the leader. Chasing can be really fun and
unpredictable.
Sports courts, tennis courts and other wide open areas are great to practice a large range
of movements without restrictions.
