3.6.2 Spokes
The spokes take care of the stability of the wheel and thus of the tandem. Therefore a
correct pressure is important. Because new spokes always have to stabilise to some
extent, the wheels of your tandem have to be checked after a couple of weeks. Then your
Huka-dealer adjusts the spokes tot the correct tension. In case it happens that a
spoke breaks or is sitting loose then your Huka- dealer will of course put this right.
3.6.3 Hubs
The hubs of the wheels should be adjusted accurately. Actually there should not be any
noticeable play. If you notice an excessive play or the wheel is running heavily then ask your
Huka-dealer to put this right.
3.7 The drive
The drive system takes care that your pedalling force is converted optimally into movement.
The system consists of
many moving components: the chain, the gear (option), the crankshaft, the crank and the
pedals. Of these, many components are free of maintenance.
3.7.1 Crankshaft, crank and pedals
Most crankshaft bearings mounted by Huka are completely free of maintenance and cannot
be re-adjusted. If it does happen that play develops in the bearing then it is necessary to
contact you Huka- dealer immediately.
If play develops between the crank and the crankshafts then you can take off the dust cap
and retighten the underlying bolt with a socket spanner.Most pedals are also free of
maintenance. If the play is too large you can consult your Huka-dealer.
When you are mounting the pedals yourself watch for the indications L (left) and R (right on
the pedal axes. The left pedal is screwed in anti-clockwise, the right pedal clockwise.
You can use an open-end spanner or a special (narrow) pedal spanner.
Specially adapted pedals can also be provided as an option.
See paragraph 2.5 Accessories for this purpose.
