2. To maintain the easy adjustability of the
resistance system, the screw threads on the lower
end of the brake rod should be lubricated. First,
turn the resistance knob clockwise until it stops.
Next, look under the right or left side of the frame
and locate the brake rod (B). Apply a small amount
of synthetic grease (white lithium grease) to the
thread on the brake rod. Then, turn the resistance
knob counter-clockwise until it stops.
3. Some parts of the TOMAHAWK E-Series may be-
come loose as a result of repeated use. Check pe-
dals, toe clips, and pedal straps, and make sure that
they are properly tightened. Next, check all exposed
screws, bolts, and nuts, and make sure that they
are properly tightened. Finally, check the saddle to
make sure that it is not lose damaged.
4. The brake pad will become worn as a result of
repeated use. The TOMAHAWK E-Series should
not be used if the emergency braking system is not
working properly (see page 12)! Should you feel that
the resistance system's functions are deficient, it is
essential to fine-tune the resistance system before
the bike is used again! Please check the setting of
the brake system as follows: First turn the resi-
stance regulator on the brake system as far as
it will go to the left (minimum braking effect). If the
setting is correct, the brake pads should be flush
with the flywheel and barely touching so that it's
possible to cycle with a hardly noticeable amount
of resistance. The brake pad can be adjusted using
a 10 mm wrench. Next, check the brake pad for
signs of wear. If the brake pad does show signs of
excessive wear, thoroughly soak the brake pad
with lubricant spray using the 2 lubrication holes
(C), and then wipe the excess off.
