Read Before Use - Bakcou Mule Assembly

READ BEFORE USE

25. Make sure to check all nuts and bolts to
ensure they have not loosened during
shipping.
26. Battery typically has a partial charge straight
from the box. Riding the bike straight out of
the box will not compromise the battery in
any way. Bakcou encourages a full charge
before use.
27. Battery can be charged while on the bike or it
can be removed and charged off of the bike.
28. Keys are only used to remove battery from
bike. Simply insert key into lock and turn,
while pulling out and up on battery handle
to remove battery.
29. To re-insert battery, key is not needed: simply
place bottom of battery into lower slot and
firmly push top of battery into upper slot.
(Note: make sure battery is locked firmly
into place prior to riding as a loose battery
may cause inadvertent loss of power, or
battery may fall out of chamber and become
damaged. After reinserting, check battery
attachment by pulling out and up on handle
to ensure it is securely fastened)
30. Assembly is now complete, however,
minor adjustments are often necessary
7.
For further assistance, go online for helpful instructional videos at bakcou.com
to precisely fit ebike to rider. These
adjustments can include rotating locking
handle grips, moving/rotating brake levers,
throttle, and shifters. These adjustments
are easily performed. However, feel free
to contact us via email or phone with
any questions.
31. Note: A Suspension Adjustment video
and Display Use video can each be
viewed under "Our Videos" on the Bakcou
website. After getting used to your Mule's
suspension adjust accordingly.
32. It may be necessary to adjust your
derailleur prior to first use. Refer to our
Troubleshooting Shifting Problems video on
the Bakcou website for support adjusting
your derailleur, or visit your local bike shop
for assistance.
33. Two "green" rolls of puncture proof tire liners
may be located in the bike box or in the tool
kit box. The liner goes in between the tube
and the tire. If the liners are not in the box
or tool kit box then they were installed at
the factory. Some riders prefer to use these
liners as well as a tube sealant such as Flat
Out for added protection from punctures.
The liner will add some weight to the tire
and does affect the flexibility of the rubber
thus slightly changing how the tire rolls
across some terrain. We strongly encourage
using the puncture proof liner when riding
in areas with heavy "goat heads" or other
tube puncturing thorns. (Visit the Bakcou
YouTube channel for instructional videos.)
34. Regular and routine maintenance of your
ebike is not only recommended, but highly
essential to ensure proper function, safety,
and longevity of your ebike.
See owners manual for further instruction.
35. Always wear a helmet and other
protective gear while riding.
36. Always know and observe traffic and trail
laws and regulations.
