ASSEMBLING YOUR HOVER-1 BUGGY
Remove all Hover-1 Buggy contents from the box. Ensure all contents from the “PARTS LIST” section are accounted
for.
1. Check the foam pads located underneath the handlebar mounts to ensure they are securely attached.
After riding for a while, they may wear down and fall o. You can replace the foam pads with the included
spare foam pads if needed. If the pads are secured, proceed to step 2. Otherwise, remove the adhesive
backing of the spare foam pads and stick them under the handlebar mounts.

6
2. Insert the left and right handlebar mounts into the seat frame as shown below. Align the holes of the handlebar
mounts with the holes in the seat frame. Align the hole of the ag tube with the hole in the seat frame on either
side. This will be where the ag is inserted later. Insert the 8 X 38 screws into the seat frame holes and attach the 8
mm nuts to the end of the screws by twisting them on clockwise. Hold the 8 mm nuts in place with the wrench and
turn the screws clockwise with the smaller hex key to tighten the screws. Make sure both screws are tightly secured.
3. Insert the front frame into the seat frame. Adjust the front frame to your preferred length. Remove the black bolt
and the rst white washer from the end of each locker. Fully insert the screwed section of one locker into the seat
frame holes. Add the white washer and black bolt back onto the locker once it is fully inserted and twist them on
clockwise until they are tightly secured. Close the locker clamp tightly. Repeat these steps on the other side of the
seat frame with the other locker.

4. Align the holes of the seat with the highlighted holes of the seat frame as show below. Insert the 4 metal washers
into the seat holes, then insert the M6 X16 screws. Attach the 6 mm nuts to the bottom of each screw, under the
seat frame. Twist the nuts on clockwise. Hold the 6 mm nuts still with the wrench while turning the screws clockwise
with the larger hex key to tighten the screws. Make sure all 4 screws are tightly secured.
5. Your Hover-1 Buggy is now assembled and should look like the image below.

ATTACHING THE HOVER-1 BUGGY TO YOUR HOVERBOARD
Carefully follow the instructions on the following pages to attach the Hover-1 Buggy to your hoverboard. Read
this entire manual before riding your Hover-1 Buggy.
Your Hover-1 Buggy should be completely assembled prior to attaching it to your hoverboard. Please refer to
the “ASSEMBLING YOUR HOVER-1 BUGGY” section of the manual for assembly instructions.
1. Place the handlebar mounts onto the foot pads of your hoverboard. Ensure the mounts are centered on
the foot pads of your hoverboard as much as possible.

2. Secure your Hover-1 Buggy to your hoverboard using 2 of the included hook and loop straps. With the
fastener side facing away from your hoverboard, thread the straps through the outside hole of each
handlebar mount.
3. Wrap the straps underneath the hoverboard and pull them through to the other side. Insert the straps into
the rear hole of the handlebar mounts. Fasten the front and rear sides of the straps. Make sure they are tightly
secured to the hoverboard.

4. Assemble the ag by inserting one of the included ag rods into the opening in the ag fabric. Combine
the remaining rods together by inserting them into each other at the coupling points. Insert the assembled
ag set into the ag tube as shown below.

PRE-RIDE HOVER-1 BUGGY CHECKLIST

14
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The rst rule of safe riding is to use common sense. The Hover-1 Buggy cannot protect you in a crash, against
impact, or from loss of control the way a car can. The Hover-1 Buggy can tip over sideways or pitch you over the
front wheel if you don’t ride it properly. Please read the following safety precautions to operate your Hover-1 Buggy
safely.
Dierent localities and countries have dierent laws governing riding on public roads, and you should check with
local oicials to ensure you are complying with these laws.
Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders who do not follow these regulations.
• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a
helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some cases, even death.
• Obey all local laws, stop signs, pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
• If you are riding with other riders, maintain a safe distance between each other to avoid collisions.
• Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians. Alert them if you intend to pass them from behind.
• Slow down at all street intersections and look to the left and right before crossing.
•Obey all traic signals.

15
• Always use proper hand signals for turning and stopping. Give signals 100 ft before stopping or turning and
always return both hands to the handlebars before stopping or turning.
• Watch for cars when pulling into traic and watch for the sudden opening of car doors.
• Avoid potholes, drainage grates or other hazards.
• Be careful when riding on soft road edges, gravel, sand, and uneven surfaces. Ride slowly and avoid quick turns
when riding on these surfaces.
• Never hitch onto other vehicles.
• Do not attempt any stunts or tricks with the Hover-1 Buggy. Do not race in traic.
• Do not weave in and out of traic or swerve from side to side.
• A crash can put extraordinary stress on the Hover-1 Buggy’s components, possibly causing them to fatigue
prematurely. Components suering from stress fatigue can fail suddenly, causing loss of control or serious injury.

It is not recommened that you ride your Hover-1 Buggy in wet weather, as the electronic components of the
hoverboard may be damaged if exposed to water. Stopping distances will be longer in wet conditions.
