Fitting the Rider to the Bicycle
A bike which you ride only on paved surfaces, should give you a minimum stand- over height clearance of 2 inches (5 cm). A bike that you’ll ride on unpaved surfaces should give you a minimum of 3 inches (7.5 cm) of standover height clearance.
And a bike that you’ll use off road should give you 4 inches (10 cm) or more of clearance.
NOTE: See Assembly sections for Seat adjustment.

Adjust the seat height so that you can put the heel of one foot on a pedal with leg extended straight A – and so the opposite foot can reach the ground with tip of foot B. This will give your knees a slight bend when pedalling with the ball of the foot.

Chain Adjustment

STEPS:
The chain must be at the correct tightness. If too tight, the bicycle will be difficult to pedal. If too loose, the chain can come off the sprockets.
When the chain A is at the correct tightness, you can rotate the crank freely and you can pull chain no more than onehalf inch B away from a straightedge as shown. !HUFFY E4002 36V Electric Bike - Adjustment 2

Adjust the tightness of the chain as follows:

• Pull off axle nut Covers C. NOTE: Right side will have wire harness attached. Use caution.
• Loosen the Axle Nuts D (both sides) so they are hand tight.
• Turn Adjuster Nut E so that the Chain A is the correct tightness as shown above.
• Turning clockwise tightens the chain.
• Counter-clockwise loosens the chain.
•  With chain at corrected tightness and wheel centered in frame F, tighten both Axle Nuts D fully and securely so wheel does not come loose.
• Replace both axle nut Covers C fully.

Removing Rear Drive Wheel

SHOULD YOU NEED TO REMOVE REAR DRIVE WHEEL, FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Pull off axle nut Covers A.
   • NOTE: Right side will have wire harness attached. Use caution.

2. Unplug Wire Harness B.

3. Loosen the Axle Nuts C (both sides).

4. Loosen Chain Adjuster D enough to lift chain off sprocket.

5. Gently remove rear wheel assembly.
   • To reinstall wheel, follow the steps above in reverse order – making sure chain adjustment arm E is on outside of frame and disc brake fits evenly into disc brake housing F.
   • Adjust chain tension according to Chain Adjustment instructions in this manual.

Disc Brake System
NOTE: Please refer to component manufacturer’s documentation for product specific instructions. For Hydraulic Brakes, see Manufacturer’s instructions included with this product.
BRAKE SYSTEM MAINTENANCE:

• Check brake operation and adjustment before each ride.
• Keep the brake system free of dirt, mud, oil, and other foreign substances that will inhibit proper operation.
• Frequently check:
• All components for damage.
• The pads – for wear.
• The lever – for smooth operation.
• The cable – ensure there are no frayed ends, cuts, or kinks that inhibit operation. Add cable lube if the cable is dry.
• All bolts and fasteners – ensure the bolts are tightened, replace any that are damaged.

Tires (as equipped)

MAINTENANCE:

• Frequently check the tire inflation pressure because all tires lose air slowly  over time. For extended storage, keep weight off of the tires.
• Do not use unregulated air hoses to inflate the tire/tubes. An unregulated hose can suddenly over inflate tires and cause them to burst.
• Replace worn tires.

WARNING: Do not ride or sit on the unit if a tire is under inflated. This can damage the tire, inner tube and rim.
INFLATING THE TIRES:

• Use a hand or a foot pump to infl ate the tires.
• Service station meter-regulated air hoses are also acceptable.
• The maximum infl ation pressure is shown on the tire sidewall.
  Before adding air to any tire, make sure the edge of the tire (the bead) is the same distance from the rim, all around the rim, on both sides of the tire A. If the tire does not appear to be seated correctly, release air from the inner tube  until you can push the bead of the tire into the rim where necessary. Add air slowly and stop frequently to check the tire seating and the pressure, until you reach the correct infl ation pressure.

Inspection of the Bearings
Maintenance:
Frequently check the bearings of the bicycle. Have a bicycle service shop lubricate the bearings once a year or any time they do not pass the following tests:
Headset Bearings:
The fork should turn freely and smoothly at all times. With the front wheel off the ground, you should not be able to move the fork up, down, or side-to- side in the head tube.
Crank Bearings:
The crank should turn freely and smoothly at all times and the front sprockets should not be loose on the crank. You should not be able to move the pedal end of the crank from side-to-side.
Wheel Bearings:
Lift each end of the bicycle off the ground and slowly spin the raised wheel by hand. The bearings are correctly adjusted if:

• The wheel spins freely and easily.
• The weight of the spoke reflector, when you put it toward the front or rear of the bicycle, causes the wheel to spin back and forth several times.
• There is no side-to-side movement at the wheel rim when you push it to the side with light force.

Lubrication

WARNING:

• Do not over lubricate. If oil gets on the wheel rims or the brake shoes, it will reduce brake performance and a longer distance to stop the bicycle will be necessary. Injury to the rider or to others can occur.
• The chain can throw excess oil onto the wheel rim. Wipe excess oil off the chain.
• Keep all oil off the surfaces of the pedals where your feet rest.
• Using soap and hot water, wash all oil off the wheel rims, the brake shoes, the pedals, and the tires.
• Rinse with clean water and dry completely before you ride.
• Using a light machine oil (20 W), lubricate the bicycle according to the following table:

Lubrication Table (as equipped)

pedals.
Chain| every six months| Put one drop of oil on each roller of the chain. Wipe all excess oil off the chain.
Derailleurs| every six months| Put one drop of oil on each pivot point of the derailleurs.
