Thank you for your purchase of a Woosh Sundowner electric
bike.
This model is sometimes delivered with the front wheel off,
in which case you will need to refer to these assembly
Instructions. Even if your bike has been delivered with its
wheel on, we still advise that you read this particular manual
carefully, and the section about checking the bike before use
especially.
The second manual, or ‘ ser Manual’ refers to the general
operation of the bike and should also be read thoroughly
before use.
IMPO TANT MAINTENANCE:
You must check your bike regularly to ensure all fixings are
correctly tightened and have not worked loose over time.
This includes checking and tightening wheel spokes,
particularly on the rear wheel, very frequently—once a month
if you ride occasionally, once a week if you ride daily. Wheel
spokes on electric bikes work loose much more than on stan-
dard bikes and can cause significant issues if lot dealt with
Replacement spokes are considered as consumables, and
will be charged at £2 each.
Failure to keep spokes, nuts and bolts tightened could cause
a cycle malfunction and result in safety issues for which
Woosh Bikes Ltd. will not be held responsible.
Essential extra steps that must be taken before riding
the bike (and also regularly thereafter):
All items on the bike should be double checked to ensure
that all parts are correctly fitted and that all the nuts and bolts
are as tight as they should be. This step should be repeated
after one week of use, and then at regular intervals thereaf-
ter.
The tyres need to checked/pumped up. The pressure range
is between 40 to 65 psi depending on the weight of the user.
It is essential that the tyres are regularly checked to ensure
the pressures are correct and re-inflated as necessary. Fail-
ure to do this will shorten the life of your bike and will cause
additional stress to the various components of the bike.
Due to their nature, components on an electric bike are
stressed far more than on a standard bike. For this
reason the spokes must be checked regularly (once a
week or every 200 miles) to ensure they are not loose,
and if necessary the spokes must be tightened and the
wheel trued. Failure to observe this step will result in issues
with/and potential failure of the wheel/spokes. The tool for
truing/tightening the spokes (round metal device) is supplied
with your bike. For details on how to true your wheels, see
the support section of our website at www.wooshbikes.co.uk
The brakes need to be checked to ensure they are operating
correctly, and if necessary adjusted to ensure optimum
performance.
If you are unsure about how to carry out any of the steps,
you should contact your local bike shop and arrange for them
to assist you. This should not be a problem for them as these
steps concern the mechanics of the bike and not the
electrics.
