Check also the correct placing of the wheel nut (B) during
tightening. During tightening, the ridged side of the wheel
nut (see image above) must face toward the wheel (the
ridged area of the wheel nut serves as protection against
the accidental loosening of the nut).
Perhaps the wheel hub nut (A) remains stuck in the rim
when pulling off the rear wheel or it detaches from the
wheelaxle(D).Thenbesurethatthecarrierpin(C)does
not fall out and gets lost.
Later, when the wheel is placed back, it is important to
checkthatthecarrierpin(C)isinsertedexactlyinthecen-

ding groove in the wheel hub nut (A).
If the drive pin (C) is missing, no torque from the motor
to the wheel is transmitted and the wheel rotates freely.
