4 Assembly. Overview. We ll have you setup in no time. For your convenience, we also have video assembly instructions online at Before we begin, you ll need the following tools: 1. Phillips Screwdriver 2. 16mm, 14mm, and 12mm Socket Wrench 3. 15mm, 14mm, and 12mm Wrench 4. Flathead Screwdriver 5. Scissors Begin by removing bubble wrap and packaging materials, having a scissor handy will be useful here. The handlebars and dashboard will not be attached to the bike and will resting to the side of the bike. The front fender and the sideview mirrors are wrapped together above the footplate. 2

5 The charging adapter and the pedals will be inside the front basket. There is also a finishing cover in the basket. The front wheel will be zip tied to the side of the bike. You can remove this wheel and set it aside. We highly recommend assembling the scooter on the base of the provided carton package as it assists in stabilizing the bike. The bike can be assembled by 1 person. Step One: Removing the Front Basket. To remove the front basket, use a Phillips screwdriver and unscrew the 4 bolts on the interior of the basket. There will be 2 bolts on the back side of the basket, and 2 bolts on the bottom of the basket. The 2 bottom bolts are held in place by nuts underneath the basket. Remove the basket and set it aside. 3

6 Step Two: Mounting the Handlebars & Display. Begin by removing the bolt (12mm) and basket mount from the steering column. When removed, there will be a bolt, a cylinder washer, and the basket mount. Place the Handlebars and Display assembly onto the steering column. Check to see the cables are properly situated: facing the front of the bike, the ribbed cable and black rear brake cable will be on the right side, and the front hydraulic brake line will be on the left. Mount the handlebar assembly by placing the bolt back through the steering column and handlebar assembly with the basket mount. Be sure the cylinder washer is properly sitting on the steering column before tightening. 4

7 Step Three: Replacing the Front Basket. Replace the basket onto the mounting brackets and screw the bolts back into place. The shorter bolts mount to the vertical mounting bracket. Longer bolts and nuts mount to the bottom basket mount. The front hydraulic brake line fits into a space to the left of the steering column and between the basket. The control line and rear brake line will fit into a space to the right of the steering column and between the basket. You may need to push and hold the basket in place while remounting bolts. This will not damage plastics unless excessive force is applied. Do not over tighten bolts and plastics as this may damage the plastics. 5

8 Attach the finishing cover on the rear of the basket. Screw in screws from the interior of the basket. Screw in a diagonal pattern and do not tightening completely until all 4 screws have been set into place. Tighten each screw diagonally to ensure a flush fit. Do not over tighten as this may damage plastics. Step Four: Mounting the Front Wheel. To begin mounting the front wheel, first untwist the wire straps around the rear swing arm. These cables hold the bike firmly to the packing carton. Place the bike on it s center stand to raise the bike higher in preparation for mounting the front wheel. 6

9 We find it useful to prop the front bike with something roughly the size of a gallon paint can. Secure the brake to the fork with brake mounting slots (left fork from the perspective of rider) using both included bolts (14mm). Place 1 washer (included on bolts) between the brake assembly and the fork. Remove the brake tab from between the brake pads. If it is difficult to remove, cut the zip tie holding the front brake (right handle from rider perspective) on the handle bar. The brake tab is only included to protect the brake pads during shipping and can be discarded. Remove the front axel (16mm nut and 12mm bolt) to prepare for mounting of the front wheel into the front fork. 7

10 When placing the front wheel into the front fork, ensure the disc is properly seated between brake pads. Slide the front axel back through the fork WITH the brake mount and through the long spacer and into the wheel. The short spacer will be on the side WITHOUT the brake, between the fork and the wheel. It may be useful to turn the fork slightly to make room for the short spacer. Push the axel through the fork and place the washer before tightening the locking axel nut (16mm nut and 12mm bolt). Do not over tighten. Once the front wheel is mounted, you can attach the front fender above the wheel. Remove the 4 small bolts and nuts placed towards the top of the forks. Take the front fender and gently squeeze the sides together to place it in-between the fork. The long side of the fender should face in the forward direction of the bike. Mount the front fender into place with the 4 small bolts and nuts. Tighten with a screwdriver. Do not over tighten. Step Five: Installing Pedals. The pedals are labeled with L and R on the base of the threaded portion. Be sure to install these in the correct corresponding cranks or the threads may be damaged. Left and Right pedals are determined from the perspective on the rider. Use a 15mm wrench to tighten. The left pedal must be turned counter-clockwise to tighten. 8

11 Step Six (Recommended): Disconnect Speed Regulator. Reach underneath the floor plate to find the thin grey cable connecting the regulator. This regulator limits the motor to 16 MPH. Disconnecting this will allow your to travel 20 MPH. Disconnecting the regulator is completely safe. Step Seven (Optional): Installing Sideview Mirrors. Install corresponding sideview mirrors into slots located on the handlebars. Rotate at least 4 full revolutions, then tighten to desired height and angle. Tighten nut (14mm wrench) to hold sideview mirror into place. Do not over tighten. Mirrors can be adjusted independently of mirror arms. Hand adjust until both left and right sides until both shoulders behind rider are viewable. 9

12 Step Eight (Optional): Swap KM/H with MPH Display. Remove both top screws on headlight and display assembly. Pull upwards at the top portion of the display cover. Gently use a flathead to twist and pop open the bottom of the display cover. Remove the 4 dark green screws (do not remove the metallic color screws) to pull out the KM/H display. Unplug the cable by pressing down the white clip. Replace the KM/H display with your included MPH display and screw back into place. Replace display cover by placing in the top portion first, then snapping the bottom portion into place. Fasten screws. Do not over tighten. 10

13 Finishing Up. Congratulations! You ve finished assembling your Wattson Spark! You can remove any remaining wraps or protection. Clip the zip ties around the brakes and take the keys to open the seat compartment (lock located at the rear of the bike) to plug in the battery. Simply roll the bike off the carton package base, insert the key into the ignition and you re ready to ride! We recommend charging your bike before riding as it may be low on battery. 11

17 Maintenance. Battery. Store battery at room temperature to ensure proper lifespan of the battery. Extreme cold or hot temperatures may damage battery. Charge at least once every month. Failing to do so will lower the lifespan of the battery. Maintaining a full charge will help prolong the life of the battery. Tires. Keep tires filled at psi. Avoid large potholes and sharp objects. Abrasive surfaces will lower the lifespan of the tires. Chain. Keep chain clean and free of debris and apply grease periodically as necessary. Riding in dirt or particle prone surfaces, as well as riding during raining or wet conditions will require more frequent cleaning and lubrication of the chain to ensure the chain moves freely. 15

18 Regulation. Federal law regulates consumer products for low speed electric bicycles, however use of these products is regulated by state vehicle code and these vary from state to state. For a brief overview of all the states, visit: We recommended that you review your specific state vehicle codes in detail for more information. 16
