4. Parentah Operasi

Internal Gearing Operation

The Nexus 3-speed internal gear hub, utilizing this driver unit, provides three distinct gear ratios. Shifting is typically performed via a compatible shifter (not included with this driver unit) that controls the internal mechanism. Shift only when the bicycle is stationary or pedaling lightly to ensure smooth engagement and prevent damage to the internal components.

Coaster Brake Function

This driver unit is designed for use with coaster brake hubs. To engage the coaster brake, pedal backward. The braking force is proportional to the pressure applied when pedaling backward. Familiarize yourself with the brake's response in a safe environment before riding in traffic.

5. Pangropéa

Pangropéa Umum

The internal gearing system of the Nexus hub is engineered for minimal maintenance, with sealed mechanisms that protect against dirt, water, and debris. Regular external cleaning of the hub shell and spokes is recommended.

Avoid using high-pressure washers directly on the hub, as this can force water past seals and compromise internal lubrication. Periodically check for any unusual noises or resistance during pedaling or braking, which may indicate a need for professional inspection.

Lubrication

The internal components of the driver unit are pre-lubricated and sealed. Do not attempt to disassemble the driver unit for lubrication unless you are a qualified mechanic with the proper tools and knowledge. Improper lubrication can lead to component failure.

6. Cara ngungkulan

Masalah umum

• Difficulty Shifting: Ensure the shifter cable tension is correctly adjusted according to the hub's technical service instructions. Worn or damaged shifter cables can also cause shifting problems.
• Ineffective Coaster Brake: Check if the brake arm is securely fastened to the bicycle frame. If the brake feels spongy or unresponsive, the internal brake mechanism may require inspection by a professional.
• Unusual Noises from Hub: Grinding, clicking, or excessive friction may indicate internal wear or damage. Discontinue use and have the hub inspected by a qualified bicycle mechanic.

For any issues not resolved by basic checks, consult a professional bicycle mechanic or an authorized SHIMANO service center.
