worn or worn parts are replaced if necessary.
EN
The battery must be removed before each maintenance operation.
WARNING: When replacing components it is important to use original parts to
maintain the performance and reliability of the bicycle. Only manufacturer's parts
are considered original parts.
WARNING: It is the responsibility of the user in case of purchase and use of fake
(counterfeit) parts that subsequently cause damage to the product, person or
environment.
Make sure to use appropriate spare parts for tires, inner tubes, transmission elements
and various components of the braking system. If you have any questions, please
contact the service department or your dealer.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for improper use or incorrect
installation.
WARNING 1 : Like all mechanical components, EPAC is subject to wear and high stress.
Different materials and components can react to wear or stress fatigue in different
ways. If a component's rated life has been exceeded, it may fail suddenly, resulting in
injury to the operator. Any form of cracking, scratching, or color change in the high stress
areas indicates that the life of the component has been reached and must be replaced.
WARNING 2: For composite components, impact damage may be invisible to the user,
the manufacturer must explain the consequences of impact damage and that in case
of impact, composite components must either be returned to the manufacturer for
inspection or destroyed and replaced.
LUBRICATION
Lubrication is essential on the various components that are in motion to prevent
corrosion. Oil the chain regularly, brush the sprockets and chainrings, periodically
introduce a few drops of oil into the brake and derailleur cable housings.
It is advisable to first clean and dry the components to be lubricated. It is advisable to
use oil specifically for the chain and derailleur. Grease should be used for the other
components.
PNEUMATICS
It is strongly recommended to check tire pressure periodically. Driving with under-
inflated or over-inflated tires can impair performance, cause premature wear, cause
rim damage, reduce range or increase the risk of accidents. If severe wear or a notch
is visible on any tire, replace it before riding the bicycle.
IMPORTANT : A pressure range is indicated on the sidewall of the tire by the
manufacturer. The pressure must be adjusted according to the user's weight.
BRAKES
Before each use, check that the front and rear brakes are in perfect working order.
Check the brakes regularly to prevent accidents due to brake malfunction.
