Starting the engine with an electric starter.

• Place the scooter on the center stand.
• Press and hold either brake lever.
• Set the main switch to the “ON” position.
• Press the electric starter button without rotating the throttle.
• Once the engine starts, release the starter button.
• If the engine is cold, run it for a while to warm it up.

ATTENTION! 1. Immediately release the starter button after starting the scooter. 2. Do not press the starter button after the engine has started. 3. If the engine is hot and does not start when you press the starter button for 3-4 seconds, then turn the throttle handle (gas handle) 1/8 turn and press the starter button again. 4. To avoid discharging the battery, do not hold the starter button pressed for more than 10 seconds. If the engine does not start after pressing the starter button for 10 seconds, wait 10 seconds and try to start the engine again.

Start of movement

• To remove the scooter from the center stand, it is necessary. Hold the left brake handle and push the scooter slightly forward. You should stand to the left of the scooter.
• You should sit on the left side. You should sit upright in the seat with one or both feet remaining on the ground.
• Release the rear brake lever and begin to slowly rotate the throttle grip (throttle grip).

ATTENTION! Do not turn the throttle sharply to avoid the scooter lifting onto its rear wheel and tipping over. This is especially dangerous when driving uphill or with a significant load on the trunk. Before entering the road, use the appropriate turn signal to alert other drivers of your intention. Before starting to move from the sidewalk, look carefully to the left and behind to make sure that your maneuver is safe.

Stop

When approaching the place where you want to stop, do the following: 1. Turn on the correct turn signal and, making sure that you are not interfering with other vehicles, slowly turn to the place where you want to stop. 2. Allow the throttle to rotate in the opposite direction to its original position. Then, by pressing the front and rear brake levers, bring the scooter to a complete stop. The illuminated brake light will alert drivers behind you that you are about to stop. 3. After the scooter has come to a complete stop, turn the turn switch to the center position and the ignition key to the “OFF” position. 4. Make sure that you park the scooter in a place where it will not interfere with traffic. Remember that the scooter may tip over if the center stand is not placed on a firm, level surface. 5. To place the scooter on the center stand, grasp the handlebars with your left hand and, with your right hand on the rear trunk, step on the center stand with your right foot. While in this position, lift the rear of the scooter up to lock the center stand.

ATTENTION! To prevent your scooter from being stolen, be sure to lock the steering wheel and remove the key from the ignition while parking.

Recommendations for driving a scooter

• Never press the brake lever sharply or turn the steering wheel suddenly to the side. Sudden braking or turning the steering wheel can cause the scooter to skid or overturn.
• When driving in rainy weather, you need to be especially careful. Do not apply sudden braking on wet roads, as this may cause the scooter to skid.
• When driving on wet roads or in rainy weather, more braking distance is required. Reduce speed and start braking earlier than necessary on dry roads.
• When cornering, do not suddenly release the gas or brake, as this can lead to loss of control and a fall. The turn should be made “tightly”, controlling the throttle, or slow down in advance.
• Remember that when driving through water or in rainy weather, the brake pads get wet, which leads to poor braking performance.

Instruments and indicators

Article review of scooter sym orbit 72 (50)

Hello to all lovers of good roads and headwinds! Today we are reviewing the Sym orbit 72 scooter. And this cool model is winning the hearts of scooterists, both beginners and intermediate ones. The engine displacement is seventy-two cubic centimeters, the power is four and a half horsepower. The engine is single-cylinder, four-stroke. This is a stable model weighing one hundred kilograms. Sym orbit 72 confidently accelerates to eighty kilometers per hour. The main difference from previous models is a more powerful engine. This model has increased acceleration dynamics and, accordingly, consumption has also increased. If you love to gas, you also love to refuel. The first thing that catches the eye of an experienced scooter rider is, of course, the quality of the plastic models. The plastic itself has become much more durable and pleasant to the touch. So the feeling of high quality is already felt at the first touch. There is a nice, wide seat split into two sections for driver and passenger. This separation allows two people to ride comfortably. Of course, the optics catch the eye. An excellent halogen lamp is initially installed on this model. In the dark, you are unlikely to have problems with a lack of light. This is very important for summer residents, where there may be problems with general lighting. By the way, similar scooters are exported to European countries, where there is very strict control over toxicity standards. Therefore, to meet high quality standards, manufacturers equipped the cylinder head with the so-called “house”. A carburetor with a standard eighty-fifth fuel jet ensures stable operation. Moreover, manufacturers equipped the carburetor with a special curtain in order to protect it from dust and dirt. Alas, for the engine to run, it needs to be warmed up and this is a big minus. But some parts are easy to replace with similar Chinese ones. But the cost of original spare parts is quite high and they are difficult to find. The engineers were greedy with shock absorbers. He is only one, although he does a good job. The rear brake is drum, but with such weight, I would, of course, like a disc brake. The quality is visible in everything: from the plastic with which we started our acquaintance to the brake pads. Overall, this is a good model that has certain tasks: riding outside the city, and even in the city itself. Excellent build quality and pleasant-to-touch material - all this will give you great pleasure from riding! It’s really pleasant to ride on it, the manufacturers definitely managed to achieve this, for which I give them a big bow. A stylish, pleasing to the eye scooter will suit all scooter lovers of all ages and preferences. It hides both a sporty character and a refined perfection of form. And the main thing about this scooter is attention to detail.
