Setup and Preparation
Before applying Lucas Chain Lube, ensure the motorcycle chain and sprockets are clean and free from old grease, dirt, and debris.
- Park the motorcycle on a stand or in a position where the rear wheel can be freely rotated.
- Use a suitable chain cleaner to remove existing grime. Follow the cleaner's instructions for best results.
- Allow the chain to dry completely before applying the lubricant.
- Shake the Lucas Chain Lube can well before use to ensure proper mixing of contents.
Operating Instructions
Applying Lucas Chain Lube correctly ensures maximum protection and longevity for your chain.
- Position the spray nozzle approximately 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) from the chain.
- Slowly rotate the rear wheel by hand while evenly spraying the lubricant along the entire length of the chain.
- Focus the spray on the inner side of the chain, where the rollers and O-rings are located, to ensure proper penetration.
- Apply a thin, even coat. Avoid over-application, as this can lead to excess sling-off.
- Allow the lubricant to set for at least 10-15 minutes before riding. For best results, allow it to set overnight. This allows the lubricant to penetrate thoroughly and adhere to the chain, minimizing sling-off during operation.
Maintenance and Storage
Regular maintenance with Lucas Chain Lube will extend the life of your motorcycle chain and sprockets.
- Reapply lubricant every 300-500 miles (500-800 km) or after riding in wet or dusty conditions.
- Store the aerosol can in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition.
- Ensure the cap is securely placed on the can when not in use to prevent accidental discharge or contamination.
- Do not store in temperatures above 50°C (122°F).
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Excessive sling-off after application | Over-application of lubricant or insufficient drying time. | Apply a thinner coat. Allow more time for the lubricant to set (ideally overnight) before riding. |
| Chain still noisy or stiff after lubrication | Chain was not properly cleaned before application, or lubricant did not penetrate. | Thoroughly clean the chain with a dedicated chain cleaner. Ensure even application, focusing on rollers and O-rings. Reapply if necessary. |
| Can not spraying properly | Nozzle clogged or can is too cold. | Remove and clean the nozzle. Warm the can slightly (do not heat directly with flame). Shake well. |
