Notes
The electric bike is designed based on the original bike in combination with the market demand and is a means of
transport with special functions and uses. At the time of purchase, please select and buy a model suitable for your
need. Riders must have skilled riding technique before riding on the roads. For correct use and security, please pay
attention to the following matters:
a.
checking the fastening status of the motor
and rear fork, and if a loose phenomenon is
found, it should be tightened timely.
b. When starting the power supply or meeting a
steep slope, use the Pedal to assist as far as
possible to reduce the starting current
and extend the battery life and continuation
line mileage.
c.
water depth. When water depth is more than
the wheel center, it is likely for the motor to
soak water, thus resulting in failure.
d. Users must use the charger specified by
the manufacturer for charging the storage
battery. When charging, ensure that the
battery and charger are flush.
e.
on the battery box and charger to impede
heat, where a good ventilation environment
should be maintained.
f. Please keep appropriate air pressure inside
the tires, so as to avoid increasing the
resistance when riding, and easily wearing the
tires and deforming the Rim.
g. Riders should abide by traffic rules, and the
riding speed should be controlled below 25mi.
Goods to be carried should not exceed 55lbs.
h. When high-speed running or downhill hard
braking, do not use the front brake to avoid
the center of gravity from moving ahead, thus
resulting in danger.

Charging
Transportation and storage before purchase will
likely result in a loss of power to the battery. The
battery should be charged before first use.
must be used for charging; use of another charger
might damage the battery, and may even lead to
fire and other danger. Problems caused by use of an
unissued charger are not covered by the warranty.

Charging steps and method
1. Check carefully whether the rated input
voltage of the charger is consistent with the
voltage of the power grid.
2. The battery can be directly put on the bike
for charging and can also be taken down from
the bike to be charged indoors and at other
appropriate places.
Connect first the output plug of the charger
with the charging jack of the battery properly,
and then connect the input plug of the charger
to the AC power supply.
4. At this time, the power indicator light and
the charge indicator light of the charger are
on, indicating that the charging has been
connected.
5. After charging, first pull out the AC power
plug, and then pull out the plug connected
with the battery.
Charging time for a fully discharged battery is 6 to
8 hours. After the charge indicator goes from red
to green, the battery has been fully charged.
A new bike had will need to be re-charged for 8
the first time. The one-week depth charging and
discharging is a cycle to fully activate the active
substances inside the battery. Later, it can be re-
charged even if its power is not used up.
Common sense of charging and use:
• The battery should be charged in a spacious
environment, staying away from high
temperature, high humidity and close fire,
because the battery and the charger are
ICON EV Manual Operation and adjustment ATV08 16
electronic products, high temperature and
humidity will corrode electronic components,
resulting in some harmful gases and soot, and
even a possible explosion to wound.
• The charging time should not be too long.
A long charging will lead to shortened life
expectancy of the battery.
• After the battery is fully charged, the power
supply should be pulled out as soon as
possible, and at the same time, the battery is
taken out of the charger.
• When the battery is not used for a long term,
the battery power should be emptied before
the battery is preserved, and it is re-charged
once every month or so.
Reflection and lighting system
The reflection system includes a reflector on the
rim, front and rear passive lamp, backpack, helmet
and reflective patch on riding clothes. The lighting
system is mainly the battery or the self-power-
generated front and rear lamp. These items help
to mark your own position when riding at night,
convenient for pedestrians and other vehicles on
the roads to avoid (recommendation: purchasers in
accordance with local laws and standards use the
reflector and lighting system).
Safety height mark
Position of Vertical handle stems
adjusted depending on personal preferred riding
perspective, but the insertion mark (that is, the
safety line) can not be exposed; in case of improper
use, it may cause serious injury to the rider).
Adjustment method:
1. Loosen the handle core

2.
stems to the appropriate
height, and pay attention
to not exceeding the safety
mark (that is, the safety line);
Fasten the core screw rod.
ICON EV Manual Operation and adjustment ATV08 17
Braking system
The braking system is an accessory
necessary for each bike and is the
key to traffic safety; before riding,
you must understand your braking
system, and do a good job in the
inspection and adjustment work.
The general idea is that upon hard
braking, the bike will surely stop
in a short distance, but that is
wrong. Upon hard braking, when
the wheels are suddenly jammed
by the brake rubber, the bike will
dangerous but the braking distance
will be lengthened.
Therefore, the braking system
should only be used to adjust the
speed of the bike.
The braking system typically
includes a Brake handle, brake(disk
types of brakes) and brake cable.
Brake handle
The structure of the Brake handle is as shown (in the left drawing),
and the left Brake handle controls the front brake and the right
Brake handle controls the rear brake.
• The adjusting screw is used to adjust the distance between the
brake shoe block and the Rim.
• The effective stroke of the brake cable is about a half of the
distance between the handle of the Brake handle and the
grip of the Across handle Stems; if the brake is tight when the
handle of the Brake handle is almost approaching to the grip of
the Across handle Stems, the distance between the brake shoe
block and the Rim is too large, it needs to be adjusted.
ICON EV Manual Operation and adjustment ATV08 18
Disk brake type brake
Adjustment method of the brake shoe block:
1. Loosen the positioning bolt;
2. Adjust the distance of the shoe block through
the left and right knob; when the shoe block
adjusts the left knob of the bolt, the distance
of the brake shoe block is increased, and vice
versa it becomes small (as shown in the
disk chart).
Depending on the circumstances, the braking
is adjusted.
Brake cable
The brake cable of the flat handle
• The bifurcation situation of the internal line
should be avoided, so a tail sleeve had best be
covered on the line end.
• The brake cable should be regularly taken out
to be oiled, to avoid too large resistance arisen
from rust.
• The brake cable in a linear way has the best
function, and if it must be bent, the turning
with a small arc should be avoided as far
as possible.
• The length of the brake cable is based on the
principle that it will not be stuck when the
handlebar turns left or right to the limit.

ICON EV Manual Operation and adjustment ATV08 19
Common sense use of the braking system:
• When the distance between the brake
shoe block and the rim is too large, it
is adjusted by the brake handle or the
adjusting screw on the folder gate device.
• When the lines of the brake shoe block
are worn seriously, replace it timely in
order to maintain traffic safety.
• When not riding for a long time, please
loosen the folder device to avoid fatigue
of flexibility, but pay attention to recovery
of the gate device before riding.
• When riding on rainy days, the function
of any gate device will be weakened,
so please keep a longer safe braking
distance and reduce the speed.
• The surface on the brake disc, shoe
block may not be oiled, so as to avoid
serious injury.
•
the brake cable to be broken and this is
very dangerous, please replace it timely.
Speed control system
The speed control system is used to cater for
various terrain and clockwise and counterclockwise
wind conditions, and to mix with physical strength
appropriately. The entire speed control system includes
a Derailleur, front and Back fender, chain plate, and
flywheel and shift cables.
The number of the speed change series is the number of
fluted disc × the number of flywheel pieces.
For example: three pieces of chain plate× 6 flywheel
Derailleur
Type of Derailleur (as shown)
The Derailleur is separately
positioned on both sides of
the Across handle Stems, and
the left controls the forward
speed and the right controls
the backward speed.
ICON EV Manual Operation and adjustment ATV08 20
When the forward speed grip rotates to the riding
direction, big teeth change to small teeth, and on
the contrary small teeth change to big teeth.
When the backward speed grip rotates to the riding
direction, big teeth change to small teeth, and on
the contrary small teeth change to big teeth.
Derailleur
The derailleur is classified into the front derailleur
and Back fender (as shown). When the shift cables
are loose or too tight, if the speed controller does
not work properly or the chain falls off, the H, L bolt
is adjusted.
• H bolt: when the chain speed changes to
the biggest fluted disc, the chain will fall off,
and the H bolt will be locked. But if it is too
tight, the chain can not climb to the biggest
fluted disc.
• L bolt: when the chain is toward the inside fluted
disc and the chain falls of, the L bolt is locked.
But if it is too tight, the speed change can not be
downward. Therefore it is appropriate to adjust
the H, L bolt to a suitable position.
Adjust the chain
to the minimum
flywheel, adjust the
H screw so that the
guide pulley with
the smallest gear
is on a straight line,
and then adjust
the chain to the
largest flywheel,
and adjust the L
screw so that the
guide pulley with
the flywheel is on
a straight line (as
shown at the left).
