The Krieger 2017 from Woosh
The Krieger is a strong sturdy bike which can be used for commung to and from work. Baery capacies
of 13Ah, 15Ah and 17Ah are available for this model. If you rely heavily on the throle and do not put
much eort in yourself, then the baery will run down more quickly and the distance able to be travelled
on a single charge will be reduced accordingly.
The Krieger can be used on roads and cycle paths, it is not suitable for o-road use and should not be
used in compeon events. It should not be used for jumping, stunng or aerobac acvies and should
not be ridden through deep puddles or fords. Incorrect use of your bike could result in injury and will void
your warranty.
You must be a minimum of 14 years of age to ride an electric cycle in the UK
The maximum weight including rider and luggage is 17 stone/108 kg.
Before you ride your bike, and for your ongoing safety, familiarise yourself with the “user manual” and
the “maintenance manual”. There are many components on the Krieger, and it is crical that they are
checked regularly and maintained where necessary. Details of how to maintain the various aspects of your
bike are included in the “maintenance manual”.
If you have any issues which are not covered by the manuals, it is likely that you would need to enlist the
help of a professional. Most people don’t have a complete set of tools for maintaining a bike, so things
like adjustments to the boom bracket will need to be done by your local bike dealer. You should enlist
the help of your local dealer whenever something needs adjusng that you are not able to do yourself.
Your safety is paramount, so you must ensure that the bike is maintained in the correct manner, if in
doubt, consult your nearest bike dealer.

Important Safety Noce — please read
Your bike has had a full electrical check before despatch.
It has also had a general mechanical check, but you need to ensure yourself that when you complete the
assembly of your bike, that you also check the whole bike over before riding it.
You should be prepared to do this yourself, or if you are not suciently experienced, ask a local bike shop
to do this for you. A typical fee for this would be around £35
A full inspecon should include (but is not limited to):
 Checking that the brakes are set correctly and work properly.
 All nuts, bolts, major xings, spokes and cranks etc. are correctly ghtened.
 Both wheels are properly trued
 Headset/stem properly adjusted
 Cranks are ght
 Boom bracket properly adjusted
Pedals, saddle and handlebars are correctly ed and properly secured.
See the maintenance manual for how to adjust and maintain the various components of the bike.
Please note that failure to carry out these checks properly could result in serious injury for which Woosh
Bikes Ltd will not be held liable.
If you have any doubts about your own ability to perform the necessary checks, we strongly recommend
you visit your local bike shop and pay their fee. If you are unable to take your bike to a local bike shop
there will almost certainly be a mobile bike technician in your area who will come to your home or oce
and do this for you.
Visit www.cycletechuk.com for a full naonal lisng.

Unpacking:
Two people are required to unpack the bike.
Stand the carton upright as shown.
Remove the shipping straps, cut the tape seals and then remove all of the packaging materials.
Keep the carton/bike in the upright posion, and then li the bike out of the carton and then engage the
kick-stand. DO NOT destroy the carton as it will be required if the bike needs to be returned for any rea-
son in the future.

6
Handlebars:
Next, set the handlebar stem at the desired height and then tighten the Allen bolt (indicated in the pho-
to below-left) to secure the stem in position. You will need to push the bar into it’s forward-most position
to allow access to the bolt. Ensure that the handlebars line up correctly with the front wheel and then tight-
en the bolt with a 6mm Allen key. It is critical that this bolt is properly tightened. If in doubt about any as-
pects of setting up your bike, seek the help of your local bike shop or other suitable professional.
Warning:
It is critical to ensure that the handlebars are properly secured. If they were to rotate or otherwise move
unexpectedly during use, it could result in an accident and/or serious injury. If you have any doubts re-
garding the correct configuration of this part (or any other part of the bike), you should take your bike along
to your nearest bike shop and have them prepare it for you at your own cost.
Once the stem has been secured, you can now fine tune the positioning of the handlebars. The handle-
bars can be adjusted in two ways. They bar itself can be rotated within the clamp, and the whole assem-
bly can be rotated upwards/towards the rider. You should adjust the height first. Once you have rotated
the stem to the desired height, it will then be necessary to rotate the bar to the correct position. When you
are happy with the position of the handlebars, close the clamp, there should be some resistance when
closing the clamp, if there isn’t much resistance, it must be adjusted before you attempt to ride the bike.
If the clamp isn’t offering much resistance when closing, you must tighten the Allen bolt on the underside
of the clamp as shown below. If you are not able to make these kinds of adjustments yourself, you should
have your local bike shop prepare your bike for you. They will obviously charge you for this service.
You may nd that the modular cables are un-
plugged, this is to avoid them geng stretched/
damaged in transit. When re-aaching them,
match the colours and ensure that the arrows on
the connectors line up before pushing them rm-
ly together—see below.

Now that the front wheel has been ed, you can ip the bike right side up and use the kick-stand to
keep the bike in the upright posion.
The Krieger now comes 95% built, and so the below is for reference only.
You are now ready to t the front wheel to the forks. First you will need to t the skewer to the wheel,
the skewer is the spindle which slides through the wheel. The skewer consists of the spindle (with clamp
on one side), two springs and a tension nut. Remove the tension nut and one of the springs, and then
slide the skewer through the wheel so that the clamp is on the opposite side of the wheel to the rotor
(brake disc). Fit the other spring back into posion and then replace the tension nut, giving just a few
turns to secure it so that it doesn’t come o. Now lower the wheel into posion ensuring that the rotor is
on the correct side and that it sits properly between the callipers. Ensure that the wheel is fully seated
and then ghten the tension nut unl the clamp has signicant resistance when aempng to close it,
you may need to open the clamp and make adjustments to the tension nut several mes before you reach
the opmum clamping force. The clamp should be reasonably dicult to close to ensure that the wheel is
properly secured when the clamp is engaged.

8
Seat-post/saddle:
The seat-post simply slides into posion and then the clamp is used to secure it. To adjust the height of
the saddle, simply open the clamp and posion the seat-post at the desired height and then close the
clamp to lock it into posion. It may be necessary to ghten the thumb screw a lile to ensure that when
the clamp is closed the seat-post is properly secured. Adjust the thumb-screw as needed. There are two
dierent seat-post opons on this model, but the clamp works in the same way regardless of which post
you have, the standard sprung post or the NCX post. See the preparaon/maintenance manual to deter-
mine the correct saddle height.
Pedals:
Important—the pedals fit a specific side of the bike. If you attempt to fit the pedals to the wrong
side, you will damage the threads on the cranks and also possibly the pedals as well. Also if you
force the pedals on to the wrong side of the bike, it is very likely that they will come loose sudden-
ly and unexpectedly.
The pedals are marked ‘L’ (left) and ‘R’ (right) which indicates the side of the bike the pedal is for. To de-
termine which pedal is for which side, see the pictures below showing where this marking is found.
Fit each pedal into position and finger-tighten, then use a 15mm spanner to secure the pedals in place,
tighten to approx. 40Nm (see torque/tightness guide in the maintenance manual).
Please note that the thread for the left pedal is reversed and so it tightens anti-clockwise.

9
Charging/locking the battery:
The battery will likely be only partially charged when you receive the bike. You should fully charge the
battery before using your bike. The battery can be charged on the bike or it can be removed and
charged separately. The socket used to charge the battery is located on the right side near the top—see
photo below-left. Simply lift the weather-proof cover and insert the charger into he socket, then switch the
charger on at the mains. The charger has a light on it which is RED while charging, which then turns
GREEN when charging is complete. A full charge from flat can take up to 10 hours.
The battery lock is located on the opposite side to the charger socket (see photo above-right) and needs
to be turned fully anti-clockwise to unlock the battery. When unlocked, the battery is simply slid upwards
towards the front of the bike a little and then it can be lifted clear of the bike. Reverse the procedure to put
the battery back on the bike, do not forget to lock the battery.
On the top of the battery is a meter (see photo below-left), this is used to give a rough indication of the
battery status, to activate the meter, press the button in the middle. The more lights that are lit, the more
capacity remains in the battery. The red light on the left of this meter is always RED, it is just to indi-
cate that if this is the only light left, you should charge it immediately, this light does not ever go
GREEN.
Remember to separate your keys, we cannot supply replacements if you lose them.

Important:
Although our bikes are checked prior to despatch, you must fully inspect your bike again yourself before
riding it, and sasfy yourself that it is correctly assembled and safe to ride. If you are not absolutely sure
about any aspects of your bike, you should take it to your nearest bike shop to have it checked before rid-
ing it. Obviously the bike shop will you charge for this service. Woosh Bikes will not reimburse you for
these costs.
Before riding your bike, perform the checks and set up your bike as outlined in the maintenance manual.
Check that all xings and major components are ghtened suciently. Check that all nuts, bolts, rear car-
rier xings, handlebars and seat-post/saddle are also suciently ghtened.
You must also ensure that your brakes are working correctly before you set o. If you are unsure how to
adjust your brakes yourself, there are guides on our website to help you with this. If you prefer, you can
have your local bike shop adjust them for you. The brakes are the same as you would have on a regular
bike and so any bike shop should be able to adjust them for you. You would obviously have to pay them
for this service.
See the preparaon/maintenance manual for details on how to adjust/maintain your bike and its compo-
nents.

There are several other features available on the King-Meter and these are covered later in the manual.
The information provided so far is just enough to get you up and running as quickly as possible.
The motor will only assist you up to 15mph. Though of course you are free to pedal as fast as you like, be-
yond 15mph if you wish, but the motor will not help you beyond the 15mph limit. This limit is in accordance
with current UK law.
The Krieger comes with a thumb-throttle which is located on the right side of the handlebars as shown be-
low. When the thumb-throttle is extended fully, the motor will provide the most assistance.
The thumb-throttle can not be used to start the bike from stationary, you need to pedal a short distance
first, then slowly engage the throttle if you wish. Pushing the throttle to its maximum straight away may
generate an error on the display.
Riding the bike
To begin using the bike, press (and hold) the top ‘Mode’ button to switch on the display. The bike is now
effectively on, and if you ride it in this state, the motor will provide assistance when pedalling and you will
also be able to use the thumb-throttle if you wish—see notes on this below. To vary the amount of assis-
tance provided from the motor when pedalling, use the plus(+), minus(-) buttons to choose from the 5 as-
sistance levels.

12
Riding the bike cont.
Your bike features 7 speed Shimano index shifting gears which are changed using the thumb selector on
the right side of the handlebars. When the thumb stick is fully extended, the bike is in first gear (the easi-
est to pedal). To move up through the gears press the black (+) button as shown.
To move back down the gears, simply push/extend the thumb selector again, one gear at a time.
Remember to select a lower gear when approaching junctions and before climbing hills.
You should change the gears one at a time, waiting until the gear is properly engaged before
changing to the next gear.
Motor Care—Important
The motor on your bike is very good, but you do need to take proper care to ensure it lasts.
You need to ensure you are in the correct for any given situation. You should drop to a low gear when ap-
proaching junctions so that your are in the correct gear when you need to start moving again. A higher
gear when starting-off will put too much stress on the motor and will shorten the life of the unit.
Likewise, on hills, you should bear in mind the stress the motor is under and select a sensible gear accord-
ingly (1st or 2nd gear), do not try to climb hills in the highest gears.

13
Operang the lights:
The rear light is already ed, to operate the rear light, simply press the buon on the top of the light as
shown below.
To change the baeries in this unit, simply reach under the boom edge and then pull the lower edge of
the light rearwards towards you. This unit requires 2x AA baeries.
If your light doesn’t work inially, it is likely that the insulang material ed at the factory to stop the
baery going at is sll in place. Simply pull the external tag, or if necessary, access the baery compart-
ment and remove the small plasc insulator that sits between the baery and terminal.
The front light may also have a insulang tag that needs to be pulled/removed. The front light uses 2x AA
baeries. The on/o buon is located on the top of the lamp. To change the baeries, press down on the
small black clip at the base of the lamp, and li the lamp/reector clear. The baeries should be oriented
as shown below.
