Operating Instructions
Coaster Brake Operation
The Dynacraft Krusher Sixteen20 is equipped with a coaster brake. To engage the coaster brake, pedal backward. The harder you pedal backward, the more braking force will be applied. Practice using the coaster brake in a safe, open area before riding in traffic or on challenging terrain.

Adjusting the Seat Height
The seat height can be adjusted to accommodate different rider heights. Loosen the quick-release lever on the seat post clamp, adjust the seat to the desired height, and then firmly close the quick-release lever. Ensure the seat is level and securely fastened before riding.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your bike.
- Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before each ride. Maintain the recommended PSI (pounds per square inch) indicated on the tire sidewall.
- Chain Lubrication: Lubricate the chain periodically, especially after riding in wet or dusty conditions. Use a bicycle-specific chain lubricant.
- Cleaning: Clean the bike regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid high-pressure washing, which can damage bearings.
- Bolt Tightness: Periodically check and tighten all bolts and fasteners, especially on the handlebars, seat post, and wheels.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your bike, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Brakes not engaging effectively: Check the coaster brake mechanism for debris or wear. Ensure the brake arm is securely attached to the frame. If issues persist, consult a professional bike mechanic.
- Loose handlebars or seat: Re-tighten the stem bolts for handlebars and the quick-release lever for the seat post. Do not overtighten.
- Unusual noises: Inspect the chain, pedals, and wheels for any obstructions or loose components. Lubricate the chain if it sounds dry.
