Front Wheel; Front Brake - Mecatecno T8 Manual De Uso

Mecatecno motorbikes are designed to work with 24 volts (T8) and 36 volts (T12), using
higher voltage would cause damage to the engine. Any modification to the motor would
void the warranty in its entirety. Improper use of the battery, such as an incorrect charge,
improper storage or use of the battery in another motorbike or other machine, will also
void the warranty. All of these activities can also cause dangerous situations.
Keep the battery away from excessive heat, including prolonged exposure to the sun.
Also keep the battery away from water and any other liquid. Dry the battery as soon as
possible if it gets wet in the rain. Remove the battery from the motorbike before washing
it. Never apply strong pressure, blows or excessive vibrations to the battery.
The accessible parts do not have sharp edges, angles or surfaces that could hurt the
rider.
The battery life was calculated in a series of tests at half throttle and considering the
child's weight. The battery life can vary depending on how the motorbike is used.
