Operation Instruction
• One front sprocket called a chaining
• A drive chain
There are many different types of swifter mechanisms, each preferred for specific
applications because of its ergonomic, performance and price characteristics.
A downshift is a shift to a lower or slower gear, which is easier to pedal.
An upshift is a shift to a higher or faster gear, which is harder to pedal.
For example, you can downshift to a lower gear to make pedaling easier on a hill.
On the other hand, you may upshift to a higher gear when you wish to go faster.
Whether up-shifting or downshifting, the derailleur system requires that the drive chain is
moving forward and is under at least some tension. A derailleur will shift only if you are
pedaling forward.
Caution: Never move the swifter while pedaling backward. Also do not pedal backwards
after moving the swifter. Either of these actions could jam chain and cause serious damage
to the E-Bike.
Derailleur System
The derailleur system includes the front
and rear derailleur, the shift levers, and the
derailleur control cables, all of which must
function properly for smooth gear shifting to
occur.
Derailleur
Although the front and rear derailleurs are
initially adjusted in our factory, you will need
to inspect and adjust both before riding the
E-bike.
Rear Derailleur
Begin by shifting the rear swifter to largest
number indicated, loosen the cable from the
rear derailleur cable anchor bolt, and place
the chain on the smallest Sprocket.
