WARNING:
Failure

a valve stem extender can be
purchased at almost any auto

Note:
The pressurized air
supplies found at gasoline
stations are designed to infl ate
high-volume automobile tires.
If you decide to use such an air
supply to infl ate your electric
scooter tires, fi rst make sure

then use very short bursts to
infl ate to the correct PSI. If you
inadvertently over-infl ate the
