Share on :

An electric scooter is a type of bike that has an engine. They are very efficient in that they may be used especially in times where there is huge traffic. They are quite good for the environment because they do not use too much fuel and have a small amount of emissions of harmful gases into the environment.

If you want to clean it you have to begin by dusting it off. You have to use a cloth that is suitable for dusting. While you do this you need to check parts of the same so as to see if any of it has been damaged. Dusting is good because it will reduce any dirt that was there and this will make the other cleaning procedures easy.

Cover the part known as the carburetor. This is the part that is basically the most important in running the scooter. It has to be covered to prevent water or any other unwanted material from entering into it. Any moisture that comes into contact with it may make it malfunction.

Mix soap and water to make a solution that will be used to clean. Use clean water and a mild soap. If it is harsh it will ruin the paint on the surface of the bike. If the detergent is mild then it is ok for this step in cleaning.

Use the soapy solution together with a brush to scrub the surface. Be sure that it will not spoil the surface or the paint. Use a good amount of the solution and rinse it off with a good amount of water. Make sure it does not dry up as the patches will be unsightly. The water used on it will prevent this and it will be left quite clean.

Cleaning the engine may be a bit complicated. It has its own solutions for cleaning. Furthermore it must be handled with care so that it does not get spoilt. When it has dirt it may not work as well as it should. Water is not to be used for cleaning the engine. If you are unsure about how to clean you could delegate the duty to experts in that job.

To clean the carburetor you need to use the guide that it came with. It will basically involve opening it up then dipping it in a solution for that purpose. Ensure that you dry it thoroughly thereafter because it will have to be moisture free to be returned and used in the electric scooter as it is supposed to.
