  • Page 5: Riding Instructions

    Page 5 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Riding Instructions This guide assumes that you already know how to ride a standard bicycle. Before you try to ride an electric bicycle, you should be very familiar with controlling and balancing a normal bicycle.
  • Page 6 Page 6 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Holding the Handlebars As with a normal bicycle or gas scooter, place your fingers over the brake levers, using the palms of your hand and your thumbs to wrap around and under the handlegrips. Doing this allows you to activate the brakes easily, by squeezing your hand, in case you have to stop quickly.

  • Page 7: Safety Tips

    Page 7 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Stopping Your e-bike has two sets of brakes, at the front and at the rear. The levers attached to the handlebars, on the left and right, activate the brakes. Pull the levers toward you to activate the brakes.
  • Page 8 Page 8 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Pedaling This e-bike is designed to be a motor-assisted bicycle. You can use the motor by itself, but ideally, you can work with the motor by pedaling. This increases the distance you can travel on your e-bike, because it assists the motor and reduces the amount of electricity you draw from the battery.

  • Page 9: Operating Instructions

    Page 9 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Operating Instructions Using the Rear Storage Compartment The rear storage compartment is opened using the key provided to you when you purchased your e-bike. Insert the key and turn it to the right to open the compartment. Close the case and turn the key in the opposite direction to lock the compartment again.
  • Page 10 Page 10 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Maximum Load Do not exceed the maximum load capabilities of your e-bike. You can find the exact loading capacity listed in the technical specifications in this guide. If you exceed the maximum load, the performance of the bike will suffer.

  • Page 11: The Battery

    Page 11 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin The Battery This section details what you need to know about the battery that powers your e-bike. Always remember to treat your e-bike’s electrical systems with respect. Battery Power The dashboard has a battery charge indicator.
  • Page 12 Note If your charger’s LED status light does not change from red to green over an extended period of time, for perhaps more than 14 hours, and the battery is very hot, the battery or charger may need replacing. Stop charging and bring both to your Daymak dealer immediately. Do not charge the battery.
  • Page 13 Page 14 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin The Battery Fuse A fuse prevents over-use and power surges from affecting the e-bike’s electrical systems. It is located on the battery, where the power cable attaches to the battery itself. It is a standard 30 amp fuse.

  • Page 14: Battery Care

    Page 15 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Battery Care Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery’s optimal performance. If you do not follow these suggestions, your battery may lose its ability to maintain a charge and might have to be replaced sooner than would otherwise be necessary.
  • Page 15 Page 16 The Voyager Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Cold Weather and your Battery Below 10 degrees Celsius, the battery will not work as well as it would in warmer temperatures. While Lithium-Ion batteries perform better than Lead-Acid batteries in temperature extremes, both will experience reduced performance in cold temperatures.
  • Page 16 Contact your local Daymak dealer to purchase a new battery. When replacing your battery, dispose of it at a proper municipal battery recycling facility. If none is available, please contact your local Daymak dealer.

  • Page 17: Technical Data

    This section provides you with the technical specifications for your e-bike. The Motor and Wheel Assembly The Voyager e-bike has a 500 Watt magnetic DC brushless motor on the rear wheel hub. This type of motor has excellent low-end torque and high efficiency when working within its range.

  • Page 18: The Brakes

    Shock Absorbers Your Voyager e-bike is equipped with Reverse Shock System shock absorbers. These effective but simple devices absorb the energy from bumps and dips, and allow you to have a much more comfortable ride. The Reverse Shock System is superior to normal Monoshock shock absorbers usually found on e-bikes, and provides for a much more comfortable ride.

  • Page 19: Maintenance And Troubleshooting

    Please contact your Daymak dealer for specific instructions on how to remove your wheel and tires safely, and how to replace the tubes. It may be easier – and safer - to have the tubes replaced by your Daymak dealer.  ...
  • Page 20 TPS Training Bulletin The Brakes The drum brakes on your Voyager e-bike allow you to stop and are a critical safety feature. Make sure you test them regularly. Take the e-bike to your Daymak dealer if the brakes appear to be losing their stopping power or feel looser than they were previously.

  • Page 21: The Motor

    Note It is a good idea to always carry a spare 30 A fuse, to replace the fuse in case it blows. The Motor Do not service the motor yourself. Bring the e-bike to your Daymak dealer for service. The motor in your e-bike is a highly complex and fine-tuned mechanism. Repairing it requires significant expertise.
  • Page 22 If your e-bike is not performing properly, disconnect the circuit breaker and bring the e-bike to your local Daymak dealer. Do not store the e-bike without disconnecting the circuit breaker. Liability Daymak will not be held responsible for damage or injuries resulting from errors resulting from improperly serviced parts.   www.daymak.com  ...
