MAINTENANCE
Sprocket Inspection
Inspect the front and rear sprockets for worn, broken or bent
teeth.
To check for wear, pull upward on the chain at the top of the
rear sprocket. Replace sprocket if chain movement exceeds
6mm (1/4”).

have been activated. Perform the proper battery tests and charge or
replace the battery as required.
New batteries must be fully charged before use or battery life
will be significantly reduced (10-30% of the battery’s full
potential).
