Repairs and maintenance to be done by dealer
Check the brakes, the rims, lighting, the chain tension and the spokes. Also check the
tyre tread depth. This should be at least one millimetre. Worn out tyres or possible
faulty parts should be replaced. Also check the parking brake. With the parking brake
pulled up, the scooter bike should not ride away with the cyclist.
Checking the rim
Due to the combined action of the brake and the rims, not only the brake lining but
also the condition of the rim is important. For this reason the rim should be checked at
regular intervals, for example when you inflate the tyres. The presence of fine cracks
in the spoke punches or deformation of the rim when there is higher air pressure,
indicate more serious wear and tear. In that case the rim should be replaced,
because it can lead to loss of brake function or even a crack in the rim, which can
lead to all kinds of dangerous consequences.
Repairs, maintenance and modifications should only be performed with original Van
Raam parts.
Adjustments to be done by dealer
The correct tension of the chain
Several chains are present on the scooter bike. The chains should not be too tight.
Without efforts you should be able to move the chain up and down, about half a
centimetre.
Adjusting the chain tension of the
foremost chain
To keep the foremost chain of the scooter bike
tight, secure the chain tension wheel. To do this,
follow the instructions given below:
1. Loosen the cap nut a few turns with a
socket spanner.
2. Move the chain tension wheel, so that the
chain is under light tension, as described
above.
3. Tighten the cap nut again.
