INTRODUCTION
• This manual contains detailed information and
useful suggestions about your Fuel.
• Make sure that you understand the proper use,
maintenance, and care of the electrical system and
all other components of the of your Fuel.
• The user of this Fuel acknowledges both an
understanding and an assumption of the risks
involved in cycling and cycling with cargo.
• Children incapable of riding a bicycle on their own
or under the age of 6 should not ride on the Fuel,
unless it’s equipped with an approved Child Seat
accessory.
• Children should not ride as passengers without an
adult operating the Fuel.
1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is
important for all riders to read this operation manual
thoroughly before riding on the Fuel.
• Do not ride the Fuel without the battery pack. The
battery pack must be on the Fuel while riding or else
the Fuel’s motor and safety lights will not function
when needed.
• Do not misuse the Fuel by riding it without a seat.
The Fuel has a quick release on the seat post. If the
seat gets stolen, it may lead to hazardous situations
when riding on the pedal-assisted bicycle without
a seat.
• Standing, kneeling, or sitting backwards or
sideways (both legs on the same side of the Fuel) on
the seat while the Fuel is moving or stopped can
easily result in bodily harm, loss of control of the Fuel,
destroyed rims, a destroyed bicycle frame, or worse.
2. Think about safety. Your safety and that of others is
very important.

IMPORTANT
3
• Always check your Fuel for normal operation, loose
parts and defects before riding. If you nd any
problem, contact the customer support center for
repairs before riding.
• Be aware that other road users do not expect that
a pedal-assisted bicycle can ride faster than a
standard bicycle. Riding faster also increases the risk
of accidents.
• Do not ride aggressively. Refer to the “Operation
Conditions” section of this operation manual for
more detailed information.
• Do not over load the cargo rack. The maximum
load weight for the cargo rack on the Fuel is 33.07lbs.
• Double check your load for security and stability.
• Make sure no straps are dangling where they could
get caught in the wheels - No bags, boxes or any
items are in a position where they could be caught in
the spokes.
• Check that your brakes are well adjusted.
• Check to see that your wheels are securely
fastened and that your helmet is securely fastened.
• Check to see that the frame and all components
are cracked or broken. If at any time you notice a
crack or bend in your bike, stem, forks, or bars of your
Fuel , stop riding immediately and contact the
customer support center.
• Do not clean your Fuel with a high pressure washer.
High pressure water might enter through connectors
or other parts of the electric system and could cause
damage or cause the electric system to stop
working correctly.
Instead, clean your Fuel with a damp rag and gently
wipe the frame and other dirty areas, while avoiding
any parts of the electrical system. Any water
3. The electric system of your Fuel needs special
attention and care.

• The Fuel is heavier than a standard bicycle. If
transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum
load capacity of the vehicle’s roof, towing hook
and/or of the preferred bicycle carrier.
• Remove the battery pack from the bicycle and
store it elsewhere in the vehicle during your transport.
• Always respect local laws about transportation of
an electric bicycle.
• Lithium battery packs of this size and power are
considered ‘Dangerous goods, class 9’, when
transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of
separate lithium batteries in some places.
The restrictions apply to most airlines and some
trucking companies. But, if you intend to ship or
travel with your complete Fuel (with installed battery
pack), the regulations are less strict. Make sure to
check ahead with your airline or carrier, before
booking your trip, if it is allowed to travel with your
complete Fuel.
4. Be careful when transporting your Fuel.
damage to the electrical system will void the
warranty.
• Protect the battery docking connector. When the
battery pack is removed, apply a protective cover to
prevent corrosion and damage to the connector.
5
• If the Fuel is not to be used for an extended period of
time, you may need to recharge the battery every 2
months to maintain the battery life.
• Ensure that the screws on the front and back tires are
locked rmly before each ride.
• Check to ensure the tires are not worn.
• Check to ensure all connections are maintained on
your Fuel.
• Ensure the brake cables are well lubricated. It is
suggested you lubricate brakes every 6 months.
• Ensure all gears move smoothly.
• Make sure there are no frayed cables, loose
connections, missing fasteners or axle/lug nuts.
CHECKING BRAKES
Your Fuel is equipped with front and rear disc brakes for
maximum reliability. A cable connects the brake handle to
your brakes. Applying hand pressure to the brake handles
will cause the brake pad to apply pressure against the
brake disc, slowing the down wheels. The more hand
pressure applied to the brake handle, the faster the Fuel
will come to a stop.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
GRAB BRAKE
HANDLES TO STOP
DISK BRAKES
When brakes are not applied, brake pads should be 1 - 2
mm from the rotor. If brake pads are too close to the rotor,
the brakes are too tight. The brake pads should be in line
with the rotor surface.
Bicycles equipped with disc brakes will occasionally make
a slight scraping noise when the wheels are turning without
the brakes being applied. This is normal.
The rear brake should always be applied before and while
the front brake is applied. Applying only the front brake to
slow or stop at high speeds may result in the rider being
ejected from the seat and potentially forward over the
handlebars. It is best to apply even pressure to both brake
handles when slowing or stopping.
Pull the lever to ensure the brake moves freely and stops
the Fuel. If the lever can be pulled at to the handlebar,
the brake is too loose.
Brakes will wear down over time. If the brakes do not
perform well, they may need to be adjusted or to have
the pads replaced. To have your bicylce hardware tted
and maintained contact your local bike specialist.
6
Brake pads and rotors get very hot during use and
could burn skin. The edges can also be very sharp
and cut skin. Do not touch the brake pads or rotors
directly after riding your Fuel.
CAUTION
Proper use of your brake is vital to ensure safe,
eicient stopping. To avoid misuse and potential
injury, do not apply sudden or excessive force to
your brakes. Apply your brakes gradually and give
yourself enough room to come to a complete stop
safely.
WARNING
7
The rst rule in safe riding is to use common sense. The Fuel
is vulnerable; it cannot protect you in a crash, against
impact, or loss of control the way driving a car can. The
Fuel can tip over sideways or pitch you over the front
wheel. It moves faster than a standard bicycle. It does not
have bumpers or airbags as a car does.
This section is a guide of safe riding practices for on and
o-road operation. Make sure you are using your Fuel
properly.
Dierent localities and countries have dierent laws
governing riding on public roads, and you should check
with local oicials to ensure you are complying with these
laws.
Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders
who do not follow these regulations.
• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC
or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a
helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some
cases, even death.
• Obey all local traic laws. Obey red and green lights,
one-way streets, stop signs, pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
• Ride with the traic, not against it.
• If riding with friends and multiple Fuels, ride in a single le
in a straight line.
• Use the Fuel’s bell to warn drivers and pedestrians of your
approach.
• Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians and alert them if you
intend to pass them from behind.
• Slow down at all street intersections and look to the left
and right before crossing.
• Obey all traic signals.
8
• Always use proper hand signals for turning and stopping.
Give signals 100ft before stopping or turning and always
return both hands to the handle bars before stopping or
turning.
• Watch for cars pulling out into traic and for the sudden
opening of car doors.
• Avoid potholes, drainage grates or other road surface
hazards.
• Cross railroad tracks at a right angle.
• Be careful when riding on soft road edges, gravel, sand
and uneven surfaces. Ride slowly and avoid quick turns
when riding on these surfaces.
• Never hitch onto other vehicles.
• Do not “stunt” ride or race in traic.
• Do not weave in and out of traic or swerve from side to
side.
• A crash can put extraordinary stress on your Fuel’s
components, possibly causing them to fatigue
prematurely. Components suering from stress fatigue can
fail suddenly, causing loss of control, or serious injury.
CAUTION: RIDING IN WET WEATHER
Brakes do not work as well under wet conditions as they do
when dry. It is recommended that you do not ride your
Fuel in wet weather, as there are electronic components
of your Fuel that may be damaged if exposed to water.
If you are riding your bicycle in low-visibility conditions, the
Fuel’s reectors will provide some visibility. It is highly
recommended that you wear bright, reective clothing to
• Wet conditions will require a longer distance to
stop. Brake earlier and avoid sudden stops when
riding in wet conditions.
WARNING
9
increase your visibility.
Think about safety when you ride. You can prevent many
accidents if you think about safety. Below is a helpful
checklist for Fuel riders.
SAFETY CHECKLIST
• Check your Fuel before every ride, making sure brakes
are operating eectively and everything is in good
working condition.
• Do not ride “no hands.” Always keep both hands rmly
on the handlebars.
• Do not ride “double” with more than one rider on the
seat.
• Avoid riding in large groups, as this can force you to ride
too close to other riders, making it diicult to see other
vehicles and road hazards.
• Do not ride above your skill level. Ensure you have had
enough practice with all functions and features of your
Fuel.
• Do not ride too fast - with increased speed comes
increased risk. If you are moving at a higher speed, small
bumps can turn into large impacts, leading to a higher risk
of injury if an accident occurs.
• Do not ride with loose objects attached to the
handlebars or other parts of the Fuel.
• Do not ride your Fuel with any pets leashed to your
bicycle.
• Never carry other riders or packages as they may
obstruct vision or proper control of your Fuel.
When you ride in low-visibility conditions such as
fog, dusk, or night, you might be diicult to see,
which could lead to a collision. Wear bright,
reective clothing when riding in poor lighting
conditions.
WARNING
10
There may be additional risk to injury if you use your
Fuel incorrectly. This includes, but is not limited to:
• Jumping your Fuel
• Riding over debris or obstacles
• Performing stunts
• Riding in o-road terrain
• Riding fast
• Racing other riders
• Riding in unusual manner
The aforementioned examples add stress to each
part of your Fuel and can lead to long term
damage of the Fuel. Damage to your Fuel can
lead to an accident or increase your risk of injury. To
decrease your risk of injury, operate your Fuel
correctly.
WARNING
• Do not ride while intoxicated or while taking medications
which can make you drowsy and/or impair your
judgment.
• When approaching a turn or descent, decrease your
speed.
• Do not abuse your Fuel. Always look ahead to avoid and
anticipate any upcoming obstacles. The distance of any
upcoming obstacles will vary according to your speed.
• Use caution when you encounter road obstacles. If you
are going fast, even a small obstacle can create a
signicant impact to both you and your Fuel. If you are
unsure about your ability to safely ride over an obstacle, it
is best to either ride around it, or stop your Fuel, dismount,
and walk your Fuel around the obstacle.
• The natural tendency of riders is to move where they are
looking. Avoid focusing on obstacles, even if you are trying
to avoid them. Instead, focus on the part of the road
where you want to go.
11
CARE & MAINTENANCE
• Do not expose the Fuel to liquid, moisture, or humidity to
avoid damage to the electrical system.
