**Your scooter has a variable speed hand throttle. You can control the speed of your
scooter by the amount of pressure you use when rotating the hand throttle. The more
you rotate, the faster you will go.
Kill Switch
The kill switch is located on the right handlebar next to the throttle. This switch when
depressed kills all power to the motor.
STOPPING & BRAKING
To brake, release the THROTTLE GRIP and depress the BRAKE LEVERS (on the
left/right side of the handlebars. Depressing the brake will disengage power to the motor.
When the unit feels like it is loosing power or not accelerating to full speed, the scooter is
ready to be re-charged.
FOLDING & STORAGE
When you are done riding the X-400 you can fold it for compact storage and transportation.
To fold down the X-400, loosen the handlebar-folding clamp. Raise the clamp while
pulling the handlebar down with your other hand. BE CAREFUL NOT TO HIT YOUR
HEAD WITH THE HANDLEBAR. Push down until you feel the mechanism lock into the
down position.
BRAKING SYSTEM
The X-400 uses a pinch braking system for the front, and a hub system for the rear. They
are both activated by a hand brake lever on the left and right side of the handlebar.
Squeezing the hand brake lever with your left hand activates the rear brake. Squeezing
the hand brake lever with your right hand activates the front brake. Make sure to release
the HAND THROTTLE GRIP when engaging the brakes. Practice braking on a smooth,
dry surface to get used to the feel of the braking system. Braking distance is affected by
wet conditions and loose and uneven riding surfaces.
ADJUSTING THE BRAKES
The Brakes on the X-400 should come fully adjusted from the factory.
However, it may be necessary to adjust the brakes from time to time.
RIDING
1. Make sure that all of the exposed bolts and screws
are tightened.
2. Raise the kickstand to its upright position.
3. Turn the scooter on using the key switch located on
the left side of the scooter under the footplate. Fig.

4. Gently rotate the THROTTLE GRIP, on the right
side of the handlebars. The X-400 will begin to
move on its own power.

TIRES
The X-Treme X-360 uses an identical tire on the front and rear wheels, which
means that the tires can be rotated. Tire wear will differ based on rider weight,
riding conditions and care. Replacement tires can be obtained at your local
X-Treme dealer, through motorcycle shops, or from the X-Treme website at
www.x-tremescooters.com
Tire Pressure
The tires must be inflated to a maximum of 36 P.S.I. It is also recommended to
use a tube additive like Slime, available from any motorcycle shop, to avoid
inconvenient punctures.
Batteries
The X-400 is a 36V system. The batteries are located under the footplate of
the scooter. Should you need to service the batteries, simply unscrew the two
bolts that hold the footplate down and raise the plate.
MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDED TOOLS
To adjust and service the X-Treme X-400 you will need the following tools:
Allen Wrenches: 3/4/5/6 mm
Wrenches: 10/13/13 mm Open end wrench
Large Adjustable Crescent Wrench
Philips Head Screwdrivers
Oil, Grease or Lubricant
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN
The chain will come adjusted from the factory. However, it may be necessary
to adjust the chain from time to time. The chain must be well aligned onto the
sprockets in order to avoid uneven wear. This will result in shortened chain
life.
How tight should the chain be?
If the chain is skipping or jumping on the sprockets, this is too
loose and may be harmful.
If the chain is making a humming sound when the wheel is
turning, this is too tight and may cause the chain to snap.
The correct tension is achieved by adjusting the chain from its
loose position to when it becomes lightly tense.
