ASSEMBLY
GADIS electric bicycle is shipped 98% assembled. In order to fully assemble the bike and prepare it for the first use, follow
these simple steps:
Step 1: Packing Material
Remove all packing and protective material and put aside. Do not discard the box or any shipping material until you test the
bike and make certain it is in good working order.
Step 2: Handlebar
Stand the main body of the electric bike on the kickstand. Insert the stem of the handlebar subassembly into the steering
column that is at the front of the main body frame.
Make sure that the fork that holds the front wheel is pointing forward; orient the handlebar accordingly. Insert the stem all the
way and tighten from the top using a big hex wrench.
Step 3: Wire Harness
The earlier bike editions do not require connecting the wires after
unpacking. However, if you have purchased the latest edition of the bike
(2018), it is necessary to connect the main wire harness with the bike
components. To connect the electric wires, first, stand in the front of the
bike and locate the main wire harness with the green e-JOE logo.
Connect the wires by matching the colors AND aligning the arrows: LCD
display (● green prongs), thumb throttle (● orange prongs), brake levers
(● red prongs). Please, see a picture on the right for reference.
Double-check the wires and make sure they are securely connected, the
arrows are aligned, and the colors are not visible.
Step 4: Brakes
Test the brake by lifting the front of the electric bike and setting the wheel
in motion by turning it and apply the brake at the handlebar to stop it. If
you could not set the wheel in free motion, or could not stop it when
applying the brake you need to readjust by increasing or decreasing the
clearance between the brake pads and wheel.
Brake Precautions:
● Don’t brake too strongly or suddenly, as it will make it easier for you to lose balance and fall down.
● Remember which wheel is controlled by which brake.
● Incline your body backward to reduce the influence of inertia.
● Adjust the brakes properly, if damages exist, such as brake pads that are ground flat, please, service appropriately.
● Check whether the braking power cut-off and brake function are in good condition.
