bolt through the accessory port and into
the spigot. This will be dependent on the
scooter. Secure with the matching socket
spanner.
You may have to adjust the alignment of the
spigot to ensure the M8/M10 bolt passes
through the nearest hole located nearest the
face of the spigot.

underneath the back of the scooter, as far as
it will go in.
Before inserting the spigot, ensure the
holes on the spigot match up to the hole
on the accessory port.

are fully tighten. Also check to ensure both arm
rests are fully secure and fully tightened by using
the M8 handwheels located underneath the
scooter’s seat.
1. On the face of the spigot,
equally loosen off the two
M8 handwheels with six
full turns.
2. Ensure that both washes
are spaced away from the
face of the spigot and are
positioned against the M8
handwheels.

the arm supports so that
they are pointing away to
the sides in relation to the
frame.
4. Slide the main Canopy
frame on to the spigot in
between the washers and
the face of the spigot’s
plate.

Fitting & securing the arm brackets
Bolted arm brackets
1. Using a 4mm allen key, on
both sides of the Canopy
frame, slightly loosen the
brackets that hold the arm
supports in place.
2. Line up the Canopy’s arm supports with the
arms on the seat, ensuring the arm bracket is
aligned with bolt securing the arm rest on the
seat.
3. Remove the nuts and bolts on the scooter
armrests.
To install the bolted arm brackets proceed to step 2.
To install the toolless arm brackets proceed step 6.
TOP TIP
If the bolted arm brackets do not fit securely around the
scooter’s arm rests e.g. there are plastic shrouds surrounding
seat arms or there are not the necessary fixing points to
secure the bolted bracket, please use the toolless arm
brackets.
TOP TIP
If the armrests are attached directly to the seat secure
with the top bolt.

TOP TIP
Please do not overtighten the nuts to ensure the armrests can still be raised and lowered.

bracket, unwind the
adjustable strap so that it

the arm so that it aligns with the arm
support on the Canopy.
