DETAILED MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
(Turn power “OFF” before conducting any maintenance procedures)
Testing the Brakes
To use the brake, squeeze the lever to increase the pressure on the brake. The brake
lever is fitted with a cable adjuster to compensate for cable stretch and/or to fine-tune
the lever movement to brake engagement. If brake is not engaging properly, follow
instructions for adjusting the brakes.
Adjusting the Brakes -
Tools required:
10mm wrench
1. To adjust the brake cable
tension, turn the adjusting barrel
on the brake lever clockwise
(to loosen) or counter-clockwise
(to tighten). Only turn the adjusting
barrel in small increments until
the desired adjustment is reached.
If the brake continues to need
adjustment, proceed to the
next step.
Note:
Keep brakes properly
adjusted and in good working
condition at all times. Check to
make sure that the brakes are
functioning properly after any
adjustment and before riding.
2. If the brake cable is still either
too tight or too loose, use a 10mm
wrench to loosen the brake cable
pinch bolt for further adjustment on
the cable. Ensure that the 10mm
nut is securely tightened after the
adjustment is made.
Note:
The brake lever contains a safety switch to cut power to the motor when the
brake is applied. In an emergency, applying the brake will always stop the product
from moving. Do not disable or replace this lever with anything other than a genuine
original replacement part.
