6 Before the first ride
After assembly, the Pedelec must be checked before it is used for the first time. Some components can be adapted to the user.
We also recommend that you familiarise yourself with the basic functions of the Pedelec, such as switching it on and off.
6.1 Checking the Pedelec after assembly
J
Carry out a visual inspection:
y
Are all components (mudguards, bell, pedals, optional accessories) firmly mounted?
y
Are all fasteners (on the handlebars, wheels, saddle) tightened?
y
Are the cables on the frame running in the right order? Are all cable clips attached?
J
Turn the wheels.
y
Do the wheels move smoothly, do they coast freely?
J
Check tyre pressure e.g. with a suitable bicycle pump.
y
Do the tyres have the required tyre pressure?
J
Test the brakes: Turn the front wheel and rear wheel separately. Operate brake lever for front wheel and rear wheel.
y
Do the brakes grip well and do the wheels stop?
J
For models with gears: Check gears and rear derailleur. Lift the rear wheel (if necessary with the help of a second person),
turn the pedals by hand and shift through the gears.
y
Does the chain move smoothly?
6.2 Customising the Pedelec
6.2.1 Adjusting the saddle
DANGER
There is a risk of injury from falling due to an incorrectly mounted seat post.
A non-respected required minimum insertion depth can lead to a failure of the seatpost, it can break, slip out the seat
tube and lead to serious accidents.
When adjusting the saddle height, observe the marking on the seat post for the minimum required insertion depth and
do not adjust it beyond this point.
The position for the minimum required insertion of the seat post
into the seat tube is 24.5 cm below the head of the seat post.
The safety ring for the maximum possible insertion depth of
the seat post into the seat tube is located 10.5 cm below the
head of the seat post.
1 Marking for min. required insertion depth
2 Safety ring for max. possible insertion depth
