ATTENTION: Caution regarding to the intensive use
As any mechanical device , DPIE 3 is to wear down with different efforts.
The different materials and components used may react differently to this
daily decline. If the lasting life of a given component has been exceeded, it
may suddenly break, injuring the user. The cracks, scratches or
discoloration in the areas subject to intense use indicate that the component
has exceeded its useful life and must therefore be replaced.
10. MECHANISM AND MAINTENANCE
10.1 WHEELS
The rims and tires are an extremely important part of the DPIE3 and they should be kept
in right condition. Check the right pressure and control the wear out of the tires and the
rim conditions
. Make sure that the wheels are well placed and fitted.
TIRES
The tires are to be in good state and properly inflated and the tread to be neither cracked
nor worn down. The drawing pattern must keep as the minimum 2 mm in order to
provide good traction.
The sizes are indicated on the sides of the tires. Make sure to get the tires suitable to
the rim and the type of the vehicle
ADVISE: The front tire wears down quicker than the others by the
traction, avoid to slip on the starts. The feet should be placed forwards on
the platform in order to get more grips.
CAUTION
: When replacing a tire, make sure to be suitable to the rim
and the type of the vehicle
. The DPIE 3 tires are different from the
standard ones.
Tire pressure
Tires must be inflated to the right pressure to ensure the bike works properly.
The valve is the “ Schrader” type like the ones used by the cars. To inflate the tyre, the
valve shall be removed, then and place the nozzle on the valve, ensuring that no air
escapes , check the pressure and place the cap back on the valve to keep it from getting
dirty. If the inner tube gets flat, it is recommended to be changed not to repair it .
Remember: The maximum air pressure is indicated on the lateral tires
side
