respective anchors.
To adjust the brake pads, always do the inside pad first and then the
outside one.

necting levers and to chains, after removing the old grease. After ap-
plying, remove any excess grease.

Having HANDBIKE BATEC HIBRID serviced by an authorised distributor:
The recommended preventive maintenance and any repairs to your
BATEC ELECTRIC HANDBIKE must be done by a company authorised
by BATEC MOBILITY.
Replacing tyres and inner tubes:
Before installing a new inner tube, check the base of the rim and in-
side wall of the tyre to remove any foreign bodies and, if necessary,
clean well. Check the conditions of the rim tape, particularly around
the valve hole. Only strong, properly placed rim tape can provide long-
term protection against damage to the inner tube caused by burrs
and sharp spoke heads.
Before inflating the inner tube, check the whole tube to make sure it
hasn't got stuck between the tyre and the rim. Carefully pull on the
valve and extract it for optimal installation.

CAREFUL!
After installing the new inner tube, check tyre pressure. It is essential
to keep pressure at specified levels and to make sure tyres are in prop-
er conditions in order to ensure your personal safety and keep your
HANDBIKE BATEC HIBRID in proper working order.
IMPORTANT!
As the necessary maintenance varies between users, check with your
