Chain Maintenance

Cleaning and Lubrication every 40 miles of hard use
Every 40 miles in wet, salty or muddy conditions, clean the chain and reapply lubricant.
First clean wipe the chain with a rag and then use a chain cleaner like the one in the image below. We
recommend the White Lightning Chain Cleaner Degreaser because it is easy to run the cleaning head
back and forth over the chain without relying on rotating the crank arms backwards like most chain
cleaning systems
–
The motor prevents reversing direction of chain travel.
Here’s a
link to a video showing the more traditional way of using the chain cleaner.

After using the degreaser, empty the reservoir in the chain cleaner and fill it with water and run the
chain cleaning mechanism over the chain again to remove the degreaser.
Wipe and dry the chain with a new rag.
With the chain clean, use the Lubrication guidelines below to choose the chain lube best for your
environment. Follow application instructions printed on the chain lube bottle.
