Setup and Assembly

Your PUCKIPUPPY electric bike comes partially assembled. Follow these steps for final assembly and initial setup.

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Handlebar Installation: Attach the handlebar to the stem, ensuring all bolts are tightened securely. Adjust the angle for comfortable riding.
3. Front Wheel Installation: Install the front wheel, ensuring the disc brake rotor is correctly aligned with the caliper. Secure the quick-release skewer or axle nuts.
4. Pedal Attachment: Identify left (L) and right (R) pedals. Thread the pedals into the crank arms. The left pedal tightens counter-clockwise, and the right pedal tightens clockwise. Tighten firmly with a wrench.
5. Seat Post and Saddle: Insert the seat post into the frame and adjust the saddle height for comfortable leg extension. Secure with the quick-release lever.
6. Battery Installation: Insert the 48V 20Ah battery into its designated compartment on the frame. Ensure it clicks into place and lock it with the provided key for security.
7. Initial Charge: Fully charge the battery before the first use. Connect the charger to the battery port and then to a power outlet. The indicator light on the charger will change when fully charged.
8. Pre-Ride Check: Before your first ride, double-check all connections, brake functionality, tire pressure, and gear shifting.

3. Pedal Assist System (PAS)

The torque sensor-based PAS provides power assistance as you pedal. Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the control panel to adjust the assist level:

• Level 0: No electrical assistance (pure pedal power).
• Levels 1-5: Increasing levels of motor assistance. Higher levels provide more power and less effort from the rider.

4. Throttle Operation

The throttle provides power on demand without pedaling. Gently twist the throttle grip to engage the motor. The amount of twist controls the speed. Always use the throttle cautiously, especially at higher assist levels.

5. Braking System

Your bike is equipped with dual disc brakes for effective stopping. Squeeze both brake levers simultaneously for balanced and controlled braking. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially at high speeds or on loose surfaces.

6. Gear Shifting

The bike features an 8-speed gear system. Use the shifter on the handlebar to change gears. Shift to lower gears for climbing hills and higher gears for flat terrain or downhill riding. Shift smoothly and avoid shifting under heavy pedaling load.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your electric bike.

• Cleaning: Clean your bike regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.
• Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before each ride. Maintain pressure within the range indicated on the tire sidewall for optimal performance and safety.
• Chain Lubrication: Lubricate the chain every 100-150 miles or after riding in wet conditions to ensure smooth gear changes and prevent rust.
• Brake Inspection: Regularly check brake pads for wear and brake levers for proper tension. Adjust or replace as needed.
• Battery Care:
  • Charge the battery fully after each ride, especially if it will be stored for an extended period.
  • Store the battery in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Do not fully discharge the battery frequently, as this can reduce its lifespan.
• Fastener Check: Periodically check all bolts and nuts for tightness, especially on critical components like handlebars, wheels, and seat post.
