Front Wheel Assembly; Brake Strap - TRAILMATE FUN CYCLE Owner's Manual

FunCycle Assembly
Instructions

4. Front Wheel Assembly

Install front wheel assembly (28) between the frame
wheelholders, with the brake lever pointing forward
and above the left frame tube (see figure 3).
Install the front fender (39) onto the front wheel axle,
making sure the hole in the fender is to the rear of the
wheel (see figure 4). Attach the rear of the fender to
the frame using screw (1) and nut (4). Install fender
braces onto axle. Note: Either the top or bottom brace
may be installed first, but do the same for both sides.
Install washers (24) and nuts (25), and loosely
tighten.

5. Brake Strap

Attach the brake strap (36) to the frame by bending it
into a "U" shape and sliding it over the left frame tube,
from the bottom up (see figure 4). Align the brake
strap around the brake arm and insert screw (37)
from the outside through the strap and arm. If
necessary, use an awl to align all three holes. Secure
with nut (38). Do not tighten until chain is adjusted.
6. Chain
Place chain (30) around sprockets and join with con-
necting link (29) (see figure 5). Slide wheel assembly
back until chain is tight (approximately 3/4" up and
down movement is permissible). While holding wheel
assembly centered between frame tubes, gradually
tighten axle nuts alternately on each side. Tighten
brake strap screw.
Crank the pedal sprocket and check for binding or
"clicking" noise. If any is noticed, visually check the
chain and sprocket alignment. Check that the
sprockets do not rub on the frame tube and that the
front tire is centered properly. If necessary, loosen
brake strap screw and repeat steps 4 through 6.
7. Pedals
Install pedals (31) by threading the pedal marked "R"
into the right side of the crank (clockwise) and the
pedal marked "L" into the left side of the crank
(counterclockwise).
