MAINTENANCE
2. To maintain the easy adjustability of the
resistance system, the screw threads on the
lower end of the brake rod should be lubrica-
ted. First, turn the resistance knob clockwise
until it stops. Next, look under the right or
left side of the frame and locate the brake
rod (C). Apply a small amount of synthetic
grease (white lithium grease) to the thread on
the brake rod. Then, turn the resistance knob
counter-clockwise until it stops.
3. Some parts of the TOMAHAWK IC2 may
become loose as a result of repeated use.
Check pedals, toe clips, and pedal straps, and
make sure that they are properly tightened.
Next, check all exposed screws, bolts, and
nuts, and make sure that they are properly
tightened. Finally, check the saddle to make
sure that it is not lose damaged.
4. The brake pad will become worn as a
result of repeated use. The TOMAHAWK
IC2 should not be used if the emergency
braking system is not working properly
(see page 13)! Should you feel that the
resistance system's functions are deficient, it
is essential to fine-tune the resistance system
before the bike is used again! Please check
the setting of the brake system as follows:
First turn the resistance regulator on the
brake system as far as it will go to the left
(minimum braking effect). If the setting is
correct, the brake pads should be flush with
the flywheel and barely touching so that it's
possible to cycle with a hardly noticeable
amount of resistance. The brake pad can
be adjusted using a 10 mm wrench. Next,
check the brake pad for signs of wear. If the
brake pad does show signs of excessive
wear, thoroughly soak the brake pad with
lubricant spray using the 2 lubrication
holes (B), and then wipe the excess off.
