MAINTENANCE
8. SADDLE: Fit the saddle into the seat post and secure with the
locking lever/nut. The saddle is height adjustable but should NOT be
extended further than the marker hole on the seat post. The correct
saddle height should allow for a slight bend at the knee, when the ball
of the foot is on the pedal at its lowest position. The saddle can also be
moved horizontally along the seat post or tilted backwards or
forwards. The clamp located under the saddle controls this
movement.
9. BACK/TRUNK SUPPORT: If your tricycle is supplied with this
accessory this unit slides into the square location tubing and secures
beneath the saddle. This may be adjusted in depth. The trunk support
can be moved vertically. This must be secured in place with the M8
Cap Screws.
10. FOOTSANDALS WITH PULLEY SYSTEM: If your tricycle is
supplied with this accessory all fittings are provided. Secure with nuts
and plate to the underside of the pedal. The pulley wheel should be
attached to the frame hook. The cord runs through the pulley wheel
and is secured to the underside of each footsandal. The cord can be
adjusted in length to suit the riders requirements or removed.
11. KICK STAND: This is fitted to TMX and Tracker tricycles with
folding frame option. NOTE: Do not sit on tricycle when removing
the front section of the tricycle as the kick stand is not designed to
support the riders weight. The purpose of the kick stand is to assist
assembly/disassembly of the folding option.
Our products are designed to require the minimum of maintenance:
however the following maintenance procedures will help to ensure
the safe and efficient operation of the tricycle.
1 HAND BRAKES
Squirt a few drops of oil on pivot and hand lever. Do not wax or oil
rim. Always ensure that your brake blocks are free from oil or grease
and regularly check them for wear. If brake blocks are worn they
should be replaced. When fitting new brake blocks, ensure that they
are the right way up, (narrow edge to the top of the rim nearest to the
tyre). Apply the brakes and position the blocks so that they hit the rim
squarely and tighten.
2 CONTROL CABLES
Remove cable from the casing and grease inner cable. Replace worn
or damaged cables. Do not kink cables. Cables stretch with use, so
regular adjustment is necessary.
3 BEARING ADJUSTMENTS
Head bearings - Keep tight and well lubricated. The handlebars must
turn freely without any side to side play. Bottom Bracket bearings -
The crank assembly should turn freely without side to side play. Keep
the locknut tight and ensure the bearings are clean and well adjusted.
NOTE: if the Bottom Bracket bearings are not maintained this can
result in the chain becoming loose and may result in the Bottom
Bracket axle having to be replaced.
4 WHEEL ADJUSTMENTS
Front Wheel - Keep axle nuts tight. There should be no side to side
play and the wheel should run smoothly. Adjustments can be made by
tensioning or loosening the axle cones. The wheel should be centred
in the fork and sitting securely in the fork drop-out. Ensure spokes are
tight and the wheel is properly aligned.
Drive Wheel (Riders left hand rear wheel) - This wheel is connected
to the axle by an internal thread. This wheel is secured in place with a
M14 Nyloc nut which has been cross drilled and pinned. Ensure that
the pin is completely removed before attempting to remove the
wheel nut and wheel. Ensure that the spokes are tight and the wheel is
properly aligned.
Free Wheel (Riders right hand rear wheel) - This wheel rotates on the
axle. The wheel and axle are secured in place by M12 Nyloc Nuts. If
there is side to side movement on this wheel, this can be eliminated
by tightening the M12 lock nuts. Ensure that the spokes are tight and
the wheel is properly aligned.
