2INTRODUCTION, SAFETY, AND WARNINGSABOUT THIS MANUAL: This Manual was written to help you get the most performance, comfort, enjoyment and safety when riding your new electric skateboard. It is important for you to understand your new electric skateboard. By reading this manual before you or your child go out on your first ride, you will know how to get the most from your new electric skateboard. It is also important that you or your child’s first ride on your new electric skateboard be in a controlled environment, away from cars, obstacles, and other riders. GENERAL WARNING: Riding an electric skateboard can be a dangerous activity, even under the best of circumstances. Proper maintenance of your new skateboard is your responsibility and helps reduce the risk of injury. Certain conditions may cause components to fail without fault of the manufacturer. The skateboard can and is intended to move and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or expertise can eliminate. If such a thing does occur, you can become seriously injured or die, even when using safety equipment and other safety precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE.This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failing to inspect, maintain or properly use your electric skateboard. Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not repeat the warning of possible serious injury or death each time such a possibility is mentioned in this manual or the risk of falling leads to a warning.ALWAYS USE PROPER SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND RIDING ATTIREAlways use appropriate safety equipment, such as a helmet, elbow pads, knee pads, gloves, and wrist guards. A helmet is not only a good idea but may be legally required in your community. To protect yourself or your child, the helmet must meet CPSC, 16 CFR 1203 and ASTM F1492, requirements and be worn correctly:
3Always wear appropriate clothing and shoes, including long sleeved shirts and long pants and lace-up or similar shoes with rubber soles. Never ride barefoot or in sandals and make sure that shoelaces or other fasteners are tied and kept away from the wheels and drive system of the skateboard. RIDER USE AND REQUIRED PARENTAL SUPERVISIONRIDERS MUST NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 145 pounds (65.5kg). The age grade for the skateboard is for ages 8 and older. Just because someone is within the age and weight limitations specified for the skateboard, does not mean that his/her size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the skateboard or that he/she is capable of safely operating the skateboard. You are the best judge of whether you or your child can safely operate the skateboard; this includes determining whether your child is at the appropriate developmental stage for safe use of the skateboard. Any rider that is unable to fit comfortably on the skateboard should never attempt to ride it. A parent’s decision to allow their child to use the skateboard should be based on the child’s maturity, skill and their ability to follow rules. Keep this skateboard away from small children and remember that it is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, able to comfortably and safely operate the skateboard.Children operating the skateboard should be supervised by an adult at all times. Parents should ensure that children only use the skateboard safely and within their age and physical limits.This manual contains very important safety information.

Then pull trigger A again to engage the motor and start again from the lowest speed to any speed you want. Remember: ALWAYS ride within your limits and comfort zone and NEVER ride without protective gear! WARNING:Regular Maintenance and RepairMAINTENANCE WARNINGTurn power switch “OFF” before conducting any maintenance or repair.FAILURE TO FOLLOW MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDELINES WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY BOX, MOTOR CONTROL ASSEMBLY OR MOTOR. DOING SO WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.• The wireless remote control uses a standard 9-volt alkaline battery which is not included with the product. Turning the control off when not in use will maximize battery life. If you notice unreliable communication with the board, replace the battery.Do not ride downhill or uphill, ride only on FLAT, SMOOTH, DRY SURFACES.Start slowly and keep your speed down until you have a good feel for the accelerationUnder normal use, your Electric Skateboard will require very little routine maintenance.Slowing down and stopping are relative to the speed you are traveling. If you are at full speed when you release the trigger A, it may take a bit longer time to gradually stop the skateboard (than riding at lower speed.) Maximum speed and stopping distance depends on your weight and riding surface.Note:KNOW YOUR LIMITS AND RIDE WITHIN THEM!13• Gradually pull the trigger A to start the motor; your skateboard will always start from the lowest speed.
Remember: ALWAYS ride within your limits and comfort zone and NEVER ride without protective gear!Tighten FittingsKeep the Board DryTrucks & BushingsDrive WheelDrive BeltTorsion TrucksThe vibrations from normal use can cause some of the fittings to loosen over time. Check all fasteners for tightness before every use. This will require an allen wrench and a few different sized sockets or open-ended wrenches. Check and tighten all screws and nuts after every 4 to 5 hours of riding. Do not over-tighten as stripping can result. Snug is tight enough.Your Electric Skateboard is not waterproof and must not be ridden in the rain, mud, or other wet areas to prevent electrical damage. Always keep your board clean and free of moisture.TIGHTENING THE TRUCKS DOES NOT CHANGE THE STIFFNESS OR TURNING RADIUS. The trucks and bushings are factory preset and should not be adjusted. The bushings are specially formulated to absorb shock and provide positive steering control. Although specially formulated for extremely long life, the rubber bushings located in the trucks of your Electric Skateboard will wear over time. Replace them with the same special bushings that are standard equipment on the board. They are available through Dynacraft or your local dealer.The drive wheel will wear considerably more than the other 3 wheels. If you start noticing that your board is grinding, you need to replace the drive wheel. Contact Dynacraft to order replacement wheels and other parts.Parts like the drive belt, wheel and battery will wear out with normal use and must be changed if they stop working smoothly. Replacements can be ordered from Dynacraft.DO NOT tighten or loosen the king pin in either of the torsion trucks to try to adjust the trucks’ rigidity or turning radius. The trucks CANNOT BE ADJUSTED by loosening or tightening the kingpin bolt. All tension in the truck is controlled by the bushing, which is cast using various materials to achieve specific hardness. Tightening the kingpin may cause the bushing to split and is not covered under warranty.14
3. Move the drive wheel from the axle(and replace it when needed), and remove the belt for replacing.4. After installing a new belt (or new wheel), use a socket wrench to tighten the axle locknut securely.Illustration on how to replace Drive Wheel and Drive Belt:How to change batteries in the Remote Control:1.
