Non-Pneumatic Tires

The wheel hub is fitted with the inner tube tire tightly, and the steel wire protection is more safe.
Excellent flexibility. The foamed inner tube adopts microwave closed-cell foaming to make the
performance of comfortability close to the traditional inflation tire.
Foamed inner tube adopts improved rubber and improved polymer environmental protection materi-
als, and the products are environmentally friendly and non-toxic.
Wear-resistant and anti-skidding. The shell uses a traditional rubber tire which has good perfor-
mance, and passed the market testing.
Weather resistance. It features with high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance and
aging resistance.
An ASTM F1492 approved helmet as well as other protective gear must be worn at all times.
The MX1 supports up to 256 lbs (120 kg).
Before each ride, especially if you may travel a long distance, check the front tire for proper inflation,
check all cables for damage, and test the brakes. Do not ride if any part of the scooter is damaged or
malfunctioning.
Only operate the Macwheel MX1 where permitted. Local laws may restrict where you may ride.
In compliance with UL2272 standards, power to the Macwheel MX1 motorized wheel may cut off during
continuous uphill travel and/or other cases which cause the motor to overheat. If the motor overheats,
this safety feature will trigger automatically. Stop riding and allow ~15 minutes before using the motor
again. In general, continuous uphill travel at 14° slopes for long periods of time is not recommended.
Getting Ready
Start your scooter by pressing and holding the power button for 3~5 seconds.
Moving forward with your scooter is as easy as pressing the throttle.
Cruising is as simple as maintaining speed for at least 5 seconds.
Use the bell to alert pedestrians and other riders of your presence.
Turn the headlight on/off by quick-pressing the power button twice.
Switch gears between 1, 2, and 3 by quick-pressing the power button once. Each gear has different
speed. Gear 1’s max. is 5 mph, Gear 2’s is 10 mph, and Gear 3’s is 18 mph.
The display shows how much battery power is left.
To slow down, gradually ease off the throttle and apply pressure to the brake.
To stop, apply full pressure to the brake until the scooter stops completely.
When the headlight is turned on, the taillight will also blink for increased visibility.
Gear speeds are approximate. Actual speed may vary due to terrain, rider weight, and/or other factors.

Wear casual clothing and flat, closed-toe shoes to maintain your flexibility and stability.
Practice until you can easily get on, move forward, turn, stop, and dismount with ease.
Make sure the pavement is even. Do not operate on a slope until you are experienced.
The Macwheel MX1 is designed for relatively smooth, flat terrain. When driving on uneven terrain, slow
down.
Until you are comfortable using the scooter, avoid operating in places with pedestrians or obstacles.
Do not perform any maintenance when the power is on, or the battery is charging. Do not let water
or liquids get into the scooter as this will cause permanent damage to the electronic components.
After each ride, especially if you have traveled a long distance, inspect your scooter.
Inspect the brake to make sure it’s working properly.
Make sure all screws and bolts are taut and properly fastened to prevent injury and unnecessary wear
and tear.
For questions, concerns, or part replacement, please contact customer service.
