The cable gear change system supplied with the product, which undergoes constant stress
during use and operation as a result of mechanical tension, may easily lose its adjustment
setting. The correct operating conditions of the indexed rear derailleur are guaranteed by
adjusting the derailleur (stop screws) and adjusting the gear change cable.
The chain and the relevant drive gears are subject to wear due to use and must be regularly
cleaned and lubricated with specific products (drip or spray, dry or wet) adapted to the
season and methods of use of the product and periodically replaced in order to guarantee
their integrity and ensure they run smoothly and quietly.
Lubricate the parts in question only after they have been properly cleaned and degreased.
Then, remove any excess lubricant if oily lubricants have been used.
The front and rear suspensions (where present) cannot be adjusted unless otherwise
specified in this manual as they do not require specific maintenance; they only need to be
checked to ensure they are working correctly and there is no play.
The linings of the suspensions installed on the bike already include the lubricant (where
present)needed to ensure their correct operation and do not, therefore, require additional
lubrication.
The bike frame must be inspected regularly to exclude the presence of any signs of
cracking and/or so-called "material fatigue" so that any intervention required to reduce and/
or eliminate the risk of damage and/or breakage can be promptly performed.
Each part of the fastening mechanisms on the bike should be carefully inspected and a
preventive and periodic general check performed of the correct tightening of the self-
tightening nuts and fastening screws which may lose their efficiency through use and over
time.
CAUTION
All the controls must be checked to ensure they work correctly after every routine
maintenance intervention.
Maintenance notes
Every maintenance job must take place with the battery disconnected.
During each maintenance phase operators must be equipped with the necessary accident
prevention equipment.
The tools used for maintenance must be suitable and good quality.
Do not use petrol or flammable solvents as cleaning agents but always use non-flammable
and non-toxic solvents.
Limit the use of compressed air as much as possible and protect yourself with goggles with
side shields.
Never use naked flame as a means of lighting when carrying out checks or maintenance
work.
