To adjust the play, thread the

brake lever adjuster in or out 1/4

to 1/2 turn until the desired brake

adjustment is attained. Most

adjustments are complete at this

step. If brake still needs further

adjustment, proceed to step 2.

If the brake lever adjuster is

threaded outward and the brake

still has too much slack, use the

back brake adjuster at the rear

brake for additional adjustment.

WARNING:

The brake is capable of

causing the electric motorbike

to skid the tire throwing an

unsuspecting rider. Practice

in an open area free from

obstacles until you are familiar

with the brake function. Avoid

skidding to a stop as this can

cause you to lose control or

damage the rear tire.

To adjust the play, thread the

brake lever adjuster in or out

1/4 to 1/2 turn until the desired

brake adjustment is attained.

Most adjustments are complete

at this step. If brake still needs

further adjustment, proceed to

step 2 for rear brake.

Inflating the Tires

Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of

manufacturing and your purchase.

Note: The pressurized air

supplies found at gasoline

stations are designed to inflate

high-volume automobile tires.

If you decide to use such an

air supply to inflate your tires,

first make sure the pressure

gauge is working, then use very

short bursts to inflate to the

correct PSI. If you inadvertently

over-inflate the tire, release the

excess pressure immediately.

Using a bicycle-style tire pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the front tire to the PSI indicated

on the sidewall of the tire.

Testing the Brakes

To use the brake, squeeze the lever to increase the pressure on the brake. The brake lever is fitted

with a cable adjuster to compensate for cable stretch and/or to fine-tune the lever movement to brake

engagement. If brake is not engaging properly, follow instructions for adjusting the brakes outlined below.
