Thank you MY ASSESMENT was correct 😁🌟👑

Great video with simple instructions. Could you tell me how to remove a rear wheel on a TGA minimo plus four. It’s an Alan key but it’s so tight I can’t undo it. Am I doing something wrong?

[@nataliedodson1637]

Hello I wonder if you can help me. Unfortunately I am disabled and have a scooter like on the video, do you know if I could replace the wheels with golf wheels so I can watch my husband play golf please?

[@carlodave9]

It's incredible how many of these videos show you everything except how to change the actual tire. I'm on my 8th one and they all skip the hardest part -- prying the tire off and on without damaging the tube or valve.

Carlo, have you found one yet? I am still looking too. Michael

[@mustafagak2852]

Crow bars... Or if u really don't want to damage the wheels use a bunch of zip ties around the tire

[@claydo364]

He just showed us the rims come apart for easy access..Just like on MY pride Outback

hello mate, my mother came back from her travels and the front right wheel is wobbling, if i lift up the scooter the wheel can be pulled off. the center bolt is still tightly on but theres a part missing thats broke off, is it just a wheel bearing between the centre bolt and the wheel that i need?

[@fudge9262]

how do you lift / raise the scooter off the floor?

[@wainbruce]

You let all the air out , still in the vice , so why does the tire look inflated still ?

Can I replace a pneumatic tyre with a non pneumatic tyre on my shoprider scooter?

[@rokitman5753]

What tools dude?

[@dennisritter9398]

I noticed you have to keep charging the battery what would happen if you use a car battery fully charged..

[@SaffyFoo]

Bless you

[@32billbat]

A mobility Scooter uses a Sealed Lead Acid or Gel Cell Battery. These are deep cycle batteries designed to give out power (Amps) at a certain rate over a period of time to give you carrying power and distance. A car battery is designed to give out very high Amps for a short period to start engines. The two cannot be exchanged as they are designed to do different jobs.

Cheers WELL noted👍

How long does tires last

[@32billbat]

Your question “How long do tyres last?” There are many factors to tyre longevity. Firstly - buy good tyres! (Ours) 2nd on the list is do a front wheel alignment. We supply a “How to do it” brochure with all our tyre sales. It is an easy job for the handyman. 3rd and most important is tyre pressures. Set them at the Scooter Suppliers recommendations. All Shoprider Scooters are 30 psi in the rear and 26 psi in the front. This will give the tyre a good “Footprint” on the pavement and a long life. If the pressures are too high, the centre will bulge and wear out quickly. If the pressures are too low then the outside edges will wear. So, good and regular attention to your tyres will give the best lifespan.

[@smoxesss]

[@mickd6942]

Just an advert then did not show the steps being done just clips of finish and nothing on solid tyres Just a mention they are more difficult waste of time

[@32billbat]

Fuller instructions are delivered with tyres sold including drawings on how to do a wheel alignment. If solid tyres are sold extra instructions are included too. Why don't you buy and try so you know what happens! You can even phone for help before you buy too.
