The Space Scooter® Junior makes strange noises.
The Space Scooter® Junior needs its maintenance just like a regular bike. On
www.spacescooter.eu you will find a maintenance manual. Here you will find
a few practical tips.
(a) A chain is handled with chain spray. Chain spray is a dry
lubrication and ensures the chain does not attract dirt.
You can buy chain spray at the better bike shop or
hardware store. We recommend to not use WD40 or
silicone spray. If the chain becomes rusty, you can clean
the chain with WD40, dry it off thoroughly and then
lubricate the chain with chain spray.
(b) The ball bearings can be greased with ball bearing grease. To do this,
you need to disassemble the rear wheel. Don’t use WD40 for this
removes the grease from the bearings and result in defects.
(c) Regularly make sure all parts of the Space Scooter are fasten tight.
The caps under the deck plate can get loose by vibrations. Therefore
it is important that you regularly check everything to see if it's still in
place and fastened tight. Although the Space Scooter is put together
with the utmost care, we cannot avoid parts getting loose due to
vibration. To ensure screws will stay tight, you can use a product such
as Loctite.
