Operating Instruction

Pedals

The pedals must be fixed tightly at all times.
During assembly and dismantling, please
keep in mind that the pedals have two types
of threads. The threads on the pedals and the
treadle are exposed to strong forces. They hold
only if the pedals are screwed tightly. The right
pedal (chain side) is marked with R at the axle
end and has right-hand threads. The left pedal is
marked with L at the axle end and has left-hand
threads.
The right pedal must therefore be screwed in the
clockwise direction, while the left pedal must be
screwed in the opposite direction.

Foot pedals

The foot pedals are mounted with hexagon
bolts on the square attachments of the bottom
bracket axle. The stable hub of the foot pedal
must be checked regularly. Remove the safety
caps and tighten the screws located below
them.

Handle bar bearing

Check:
Apply the brake for the front wheel and move the
cycle forward and backward. If there is too much
tolerance due to wear and tear, the bearing
must be adjusted without delay. The adjustment
should be done by a specialized workshop.

Spokes

The spokes expand and become loose in
course of time. They must be centred regularly
according to the degree of use. The centring of
the wheel and tightening of the spokes should
be entrusted to a specialized workshop. A
uniform and proper tightening of the spokes is
necessary for a uniform rotation of the wheels.
Loose spokes, non-uniform spanning or
overload may lead to broken spokes.

Quick release

Quick release is found at the front and rear
wheels as well as at the seat tube clamp,
depending on the model.
Before going on a ride, check that the quick
release is closed and fixed. If the front wheel
clamp gets loose when you apply the brakes,
stop right away and tighten the quick release.
The quick release lever has two positions,
CLOSE and OPEN.
First adjust the tightness with the nut M. Then
press the lever with a little force to the position
CLOSE.
