How To Install A Star Nut

Requires: Hammer, Measuring Ruler

1) Remove the handle bar from the scooter.

2) Set the handle bar down on the ground with the grip ends on the floor and the open tube in the air.

3) Screw the Star Nut a couple of revolutions onto the Compression Bolt (the long bolt that goes through the fork, neck and into the handle bar). This will be the method/tool to slide the Star Nut down the handle bar tube.

4) Place the Star Nut that is screwed onto the Compression Bolt over the handle bar tube opening and hammer the Star Nut into the tube. You do not have to hammer too hard, using the Compression Bolt head as the surface to hammer. The Star Nut should be inserted approximately 3″ into the bar from the opening.

5) Measure the Star Nut’s distance inserted in the tube occasionally until you reached your desired depth. Reminder, 3″ is ideal.

6) Unscrew the Compression Bolt and continue with your normal assembly of your scooter.
