• Check the speed, power and response seng before each ride.
• Check the res for proper inaon. Also, inspect the res for damage.
CLEANING
Cleaning and maintaining your OSET correctly will provide a more enjoyable ownership
and riding experience. By hand cleaning the bike, you can simultaneously inspect all of the
components. We recommend cleaning be done with a damp cloth and slow running wa-
ter.
Care must be taken when washing. This is an electric machine and water should never
reach sensive components. If a hose is used, cover sensive parts.
Water and electrical components do not mix! Do not get water onto the controller,
throle or wiring. Failure to follow this instrucon could result in permanent damage, and
WARNING!
LONG TERM STORAGE
MAINTAINING YOUR OSET

remove the baery from the bike for storage.
• Charge the baery to between 30 & 50% before storing.
• Ensure the baery is turned o before storage.
• Check baery voltage & top up charge every 3 months of storage if necessary.

WIRING
Your OSET is an electric bike, and features a considerable number of electrical components
and wiring. All must be protected from water and dirt! The components are listed below:
Controller: Shown below. This is the ‘brains’ of the drive system. It is a sophiscated and com-
plex component and is non-serviceable.
Throle: This sends an electronic signal to the controller, which is then interpreted to de-
termine the power required and the voltage to be sent to the motor. The throle is a non-
serviceable component. It must be protected from water.
The throle contains a small circuit board that can be damaged by water. Similarly, the
connecon between the throle and controller must be protected from water at all mes.
Baeries: There is one, sealed lithium baery included with the OSET bike.
Motor: The motor is the end of the line where the power is actually delivered. The motor is
made up of many components. Any servicing must be carried out by trained technicians only.
Please do not aempt to separate or dismantle the motor in any way.
Relay: The relay is acvated by the switch. It makes a 48v connecon that allows power to be
pulled from the baeries to the controller and ulmately to the motor. The relay has con-
necons that should not be touched unless the baeries are disconnected. The relay is a non-
serviceable item. Shown below.
Several other components make up the electrical system, such as the switch, the charge port,
the speed switch, the response dial etc.
There are no user serviceable elements incorporated into the motor, controller, baeries,
baery charger, throle, or wiring harness of your OSET electric bike. DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO DISASSEMBLE OR ADJUST ANY OF THESE COMPONENTS. Doing so may cause extensive
damage to these components, will void your warranty, and may cause a hazardous
condion. If you cannot resolve a problem using this owners manual, contact your
OSET authorized dealer, or call the OSET Customer Service Department for assistance.
