Operation
6.7 Check list before each ride
Check the pedelec before each ride.
Take the pedelec out of service if you spot any
anomalies.
Check that the pedelec is complete.
Check the battery is firmly in place.
Check that components such as the lighting, reflector and
brake are sufficiently clean.
You must check that the mudguards, the pannier rack and
the chain guard are securely installed.
Check that the front and rear wheels run true. This is
particularly important if the pedelec been transported or
secured with a lock.
Check the valves and the tyre pressure. Adjust as
necessary before each ride.
If the bicycle has a hydraulic rim brake, check whether the
locking levers are fully closed in their final positions.
Check the front and rear wheel brakes to make sure that
they are working properly. To do so, push the brake levers
while stationary to check whether resistance is generated
in the usual brake lever position. The brake must not lose
any brake fluid.
Check that the riding light is working.
Check for unusual noises, vibrations, smells, staining,
deformation, cracks, scores, abrasion and wear. This
indicates material fatigue.
Inspect suspension system for cracks, dents, bumps, parts
or leaking oil. Look at concealed sections on the pedelec's
lower surface.
If quick releases are used check them to make sure that
they are fully closed in their end position.
Be alert to any unusual operating sensations when braking,
pedalling or steering.
