Power
Switch on the power by turning on the key switch on the battery.
The Salisbury can be operated as a “pedelec”. This means that, as
soon as the rider begins to pedal, the motor supplies energy to
support the cyclist’s efforts. If the rider prefers to cycle without the
assistance of the motor, they should turn the battery off.
Throttle
In order to use throttle power, operate the red rocker switch by the
left hand grip, then the throttle (combined with the right hand grip)
can be twisted to obtain motor power. Note the throttle will only
operate while pedalling.
Gears and Bicycle Chain
Change through the gears one at a time and only when the bicycle is
being pedalled. To maintain performance, ensure all mechanical
parts of the gears are lightly oiled; the chain must be lubricated with
bicycle chain oil once a week in wet weather, or once a month when
dry; avoid getting oil deposits on the wheel rims. If the chain
mechanism becomes dislodged, turn the pedals forward gently to re-
engage it. If the chain becomes completely dislodged, lift it back
onto the smallest gear cog (top gear).
Saddle
For maximum comfort ensure that the saddle is both correctly
adjusted and secure. Once set up correctly, the height of the saddle
can be adjusted without tools. Loosen the lever at the top of the
frame below the saddle to raise or lower the saddle. Once the saddle
is at the required height, secure it by tightening the lever. Tighten or
loosen the nut on the lever if required.
Professional Maintenance
We recommend you have your cycle serviced by a professional cycle
engineer at least once a year to ensure ongoing safe performance. If
you are unsure as to how to carry out an assembly procedure or
adjustment, we recommend that you consult your local cycle shop.
