REAR WHEEL DISASSEMBLY and REPLACEMENT
Use a lift jack to raise the motorcycle's Rear Wheel off the ground. Ensure the motorcycle is
secure and can’t fall from the jack. Unscrew the rear Brake Adjusting Nut, secure the head of
the Axle Bolt with a wrench and unscrew the Axle Nut. Slide out the Rear Axle. Move the R ear
Wheel forward and remove the Drive Chain from the Rear Sprocket. Take out the Rear Wheel.
The Front / Rear Wheel Axle Nut torque
should be set at 40 – 5-Nm. Check the brake
function after adjusting the brakes or after
installing the Drive Chain or wheels. To do
this, spin the wheel by hand and then apply
the brake. The wheel should spin freely and
stop immediately under break. As soon as
the brake is rereleased, the wheel should
spin freely again. It is normal to hear a slight
rubbing sound from the Brake Pads
touching the Brake Disc when the wheel is
spun by hand.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
The motorcycle is supplied with a 12V 9 Ah DC lead-acid battery.
Operating the motorcycle with insufficient electrolyte in the Accumulator will cause sulfurization
and damage the polar plates. If the electrolyte in the Accumulator is excessively low, it will lower
the strength of the current and make it hard to start the engine or produce problems and damage
to the electrical system. If this ever occurs, take you motorcycle to an authorized Hunter Dealer
for inspection.
Regularly check the electrolyte level in the Battery, which is under the right side of the frame
cover. The electrolyte level should be between the upper and lower levels marked on the front
side face of the Accumulator. If the electrolyte is below the lower level mark, take the Battery
out of the motorcycle, remove its caps and add distilled water carefully up to the upper level
mark.
Caution
When checking electrolyte or adding distilled water, make sure that the air tube is well
connected to the air outlet of the Battery.
Use only distilled water. Tap water will shorten the service life of the Battery.
Remove the Battery from the motorcycle to prevent its discharge and or leakage when you
are not using your motorcycle for a long period of time.
When removing the Battery, disconnect then negative wire first.
Fully charge the Battery before storage and store in a well ventilated area out of direct
sunlight. If you want to store the Battery in the motorcycle, you should disconnect the
negative wire from the Battery.
Regularly clean both the positive and negative terminals after removing the Battery.
When reinstalling the battery, connect the positive wire first and ensure that both wires are
tightened correctly.
If replacing the Battery, ensure you use a battery with the correct specifications.
