Motor Wheel
Remove the existing rear wheel and swap the tyre, tube and freewheel/cassette to the new motor wheel.
You must ensure that the motor cable where it exits the spindle, points downwards towards the ground,
see below for photos showing how the wheel should be fitted and the correct orientation of the cable.
Once the wheel is properly installed, slide the rubber covers in place and secure the motor cable to the
frame using cable–ties. The rubber cover for the side where the cable exits the spindle will need to be slid
along the cable, and it should be fitted in such a way that the hole in the rubber cover keeps the motor
cable pointing downwards as much as possible—see below. Also ensure that the metal coil/sheath is all
the way down the cable so that it protects the cable from the somewhat sharp edges where the cable ex-
its the motor.
The
red
arrow on the diagram above shows the typical route for the motor cable, with the quick-release
connector (in the cable) indicated by the solid
red
box.
FRONT Motor Wheel
Remove the existing wheel and swap the tyre and tube to the new motor wheel. If you have purchased
this kit and cannot carry out one or more of the procedures in this manual or do not have the necessary
tools to complete the installation, you should seek the advice of a professional who can fit the kit for you.
You must ensure that the motor cable where it exits the spindle, points downwards before looping back
up, to form a drip –loop, this is to stop water running down the cable and collecting at the cable exit.
Once the wheel is properly installed, connect the motor cable and then secure the motor cable to the
fork using cable–ties.
