Seat
Loosen nut on the seat clamp and add 3 or 4 drops of oil onto the
threads of the bolt. Place the smaller end of the seat post into the seat
clamp until it stops with the bolt to the rear of the seat post. Thread the
nut on the seat clamp loosely. Insert the larger end of the seat post into
the seat tube of the bicycle frame observing the minimum insertion mark
on the seat post. Position the top surface of the seat parallel with the
ground. The serrations on the seat clamp must mesh completely with
the seat frame serrations, push the front of the seat up and down to align the
serrations. Securely tighten the seat clamp. Securely tighten the bolts on
the seat post clamp. Turn the bicycle upside down and rest it on the seat
and handlebars.
The seat pillar must be inserted so that the minimum
insertion mark cannot be seen.
Attachment of an incorrect pedal into a crank arm will
cause irreparable damage.
Pedals & Crank Set
Look for the letters “R” for right, and “L” for left, stamped on each pedal
spindle. Start each pedal spindle by hand to avoid stripping the threads.
Tighten with a 15mm narrow open ended wrench. Note that the right hand
pedal attaches to the chainwheel side crank arm with a right-hand (clockwise)
thread. The left pedal attaches to the other crank arm and has a left-hand
(counter-clockwise) thread. It is very important that you check the crank set for
correct adjustment and tightness before riding your bicycle. New cranks may
become loose with initial use, refer to p. 83-86 for proper crank set adjustment
and maintenance. Once the pedals have been attached, check that the crank
arm rotates smoothly and that there is no lateral movement.
