Maintenance and Troubleshooting

This section outlines problems you may have and solutions you may be able to use.

Many of the parts in this product are not user-serviceable and should be repaired by

trained professionals. This is especially true of the electrical systems and the mechanical

components. Alteration of these components voids the warranty.

Tire Pressure

Maintain the air pressure in your tires at the appropriate level. If the air pressure is too low,

your e-bike’s performance will su er and it will become damaged more easily.

Cold weather and lower temperatures will cause the air pressure in your tires to drop, and

warmer weather will cause it to increase, even if there are no leaks in the tire tube. To re-

place the air in your tires, follow this procedure:

1. Identify the required pressure by examining the text along the side of the tire

rim. This text should indicate the recommended pressure for your tire.

2. Locate the air valve on the inner surface of the tire rim.

3. Remove the valve cap and place in a secure location.

4. Place the nozzle end of an air pump (hand-power or mechanical) over the valve.

5. Pump up the air in the tire, being careful not to let the pressure go above the

level prescribed on the side of the tire wall.

6. Remove the pump nozzle from the air valve without allowing much air to escape

from the tire.

7. Replace the valve cap on the air valve.

Maintaining the proper air pressure will allow you to travel much further on a single charge,

because the motor will not have to work as hard to move the e-bike.

Replacing Flat Tires

Replacing  at tire tubes is a more complicated and labour-intensive process with e-bikes

than it is with regular bicycles. It requires proper tools, more skill and more patience.The

front wheel is easier to service when changing a  at tire than the rear wheel, as the rear

wheel is connected to the hub motor and other mechanical parts.

Unless you are very familiar with the mechanical components of the rear motor, attempt-

ing to change a  at rear tire may cause serious problems. Please contact your Daymak

dealer for speci c instructions on how to remove your wheel and tires safely, and how to

replace the tubes.

It may be easier – and safer - to have the tubes replaced by your Daymak dealer.
