Using an Allen key that you can find in the pack of tools that come with your scooter, insert into the bolt in the centre of the front wheel and turn.

Take the bolt and the wheel out of the scooter.

Repeat this with the other front wheel.

Put two Allen keys in the sides of the front of the scooter into the screws. Hold one Allen key in place while you unscrew the other. Refer to the video for a visual representation.
