10. GENERAL VEHICLE UPKEEP
Mechanical Safety Check
Some service and maintenance can be performed by the owner, and require no special tools or
knowledge beyond what is presented in this manual. The following are examples of the type of
service you should perform yourself. All other service, maintenance and repair should be performed
in a properly equipped facility by a qualified E-bike mechanic using the correct tools and procedures
specified by the manufacturer.
Refer to the supplied Service Schedule Card for a checklist of items to inspect
before each ride.
Service As Required
1. If either brake lever fails the mechanical saftey check, adjust the brake lever free play. Refer to
the Brake Manual. If the lever free play cannot be adjusted within specification, have the brakes
checked by a qualified E-bike mechanic.
2. If the chain will not shift smoothly and quietly from gear
to gear, the derailleur is out of adjustment. The cable
may have stretched; compensate by turning the shifter
or derailleur cable adjusting barrel counterclockwise 1/2
turn. Try shifting again. If 1/2 turn to a full turn of the cable
adjusting barrel does not cure the problem, take your bike in
to a qualified E-bike mechanic for inspection/repair.
.
3. If the chain feels slack as you pedal, it may not be tensioned properly. Take the PXC bike in to a
qualified E-bike mechanic for adjustment.
4. If the suspension loses oil, tops or bottoms out excessively, or makes excessive noise, take the PXC
bike to a qualified E-bike mechanic.
