Service
A service must be performed by the HERCULES
specialist dealer at least every six months [
]. This is the only way to ensure that the
bicycle remains safe and fully functional.
Crash caused by material fatigue
If the service life of a component has expired, the
component may suddenly fail. This may result in a
crash and injuries.
Have the HERCULES specialist dealer carry out
six-monthly basic cleaning of the bicycle, preferably
at the same time as the stipulated servicing work.
CAUTION
!
During basic cleaning, the HERCULES specialist
dealer inspects the bicycle for any signs of material
fatigue.
The electrical connections are checked, cleaned
and preservative agent is applied. The electrical
cables are inspected for damage.
The further servicing measures correspond to those
which are recommended for a bicycle as per
EN 4210. Particular attention is paid to the rim and
brake wear. The spokes are re-tightened in
accordance with the findings.
