ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
For Front wheel
CAUTION: Your Electric bike is equipped with a front disk brake. Be careful not to
damage the disk, caliper or brake pads when reinserting the disk into the caliper.
Never activate a disk brake’s control lever unless the disk is correctly inserted in the
caliper.
Your bicycle may be equipped with a different securing method for the front wheel
(1) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork blades so
that the axle seats firmly at the top of the fork dropouts. The cam lever should be on
rider
’
s left side of the bicycle (fig. 4-1)
(2) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts, and at
the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork:
With a cam action system, move the cam lever upwards and swing it into the CLOSED
position (fig. 4-1). The lever should now be parallel to the fork blade and curved
toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you should have to wrap your
fingers around the fork blade for leverage, and the lever should leave a clear imprint
in the palm of your hand.
NOTE: If, on a traditional cam action system, the lever cannot be pushed all the
way to a position parallel to the fork blade, return the lever to the OPEN
position. Then turn the tension adjusting nut counterclockwise one quarter
turn and try tightening the lever again.
WARNING: Securely clamping the wheel with a cam action retention device takes
considerable force. If you can fully close the cam lever without wrapping your fingers
around the fork blade for leverage, the lever does not leave a clear imprint in the
palm of your hand, and the serrations on the wheel fastener do not emboss the
surfaces of the dropouts, the tension is insufficient. Open the lever; turn the tension
adjusting nut clockwise a quarter turn; then try again.
Spin the wheel to make sure that it is centered in the frame and clears the brake pads;
then squeeze the brake lever and make sure that the brakes are operating correctly.
(3) Hex nuts or hex key bolts which are threaded on to or into the hub axle. (bolt-on
wheel, fig. 4-4 )
