REPLACING FUSE There will be a fuse box located within the battery compartment or bag. Flip the top of the fuse box open and check fuse to see if it has been blown. If so change with the same amperage blade fuse. Check the battery terminals and connectors for damage at the same time.

22 MAINTENANCE CHAIN ADJUSTMENT AND CHECK. The chain will typically have a loose spot and tight spot corresponding with a particular sprocket rotational position. This is normal and common for all chain-driven vehicles due to run-out tolerances of the free wheel and sprocket. The chain should be adjusted to the ideal tension with chain in the tightest spot. Proper chain alignment must be maintained. The wheel must not be skewed. If the chain is noisy or rough running, check the lubrication, tension and alignment of the sprockets, in that order. Be sure not to place your body near any moving part of the chain to avoid injury. CHECKING THE CHAIN SAG The optimum chain tension is where the chain only moves between 10-15mm. If the chain sag is over 15mm the chain will need to be tensioned.

The fuse will burn out and automatically shut off the power if the power if the motor is overloaded. Burned-out fuse An excessive overload, such as too heavy a rider or too steep a hill, could cause the motor to overheat. Replace the fuse with a new one of equel amperage. Correct the conditions that caused the fuse to burn out to avoind burning out the fuse again. Motor or electrical switch damage Undercharged battery Contact GMX service centre for diagnosis and repair Charge the battery. A new battery Should be charged for at least 18 hours before using the motorbike for the first time and up to 12 hours after each subsequent use. Check ALL wires and connectors.

Even with proper care, a rechargable battery does not last forever. Average battery life is 1-2 years depending on product use and conditions. Replace only with GMX aproved replacements Brakes are not adjusted properly Riding conditions are too stressful Follow brake adjustment instructions within this manual Use only on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement or level ground. Tyres are not properly inflated Inflate the tyres re required PSI on sidewall of tyre as they may lose air through the shipping process. Make sure you do not overload the motor bike by allowing more than one rider at a time, exceeding the maximum weight limit, going up too steep a hil or towing products behind the vehicle. Check all wires around the motors and all connectors to make sure they are tight. Motor bike is overloaded Sometimes the motor bike Loose wires or connectors doesn't run, but other times it does. Motor or electrical switch damage Charger gets warm during Normal response to charger use use Motor bike does not stop when applying the brake Motor bike makes loud noises or grinding sounds Brales are not adjusted properly Contact GMX service centre for diagnosis and repair No action required. This is normal for some chargers and is no casue for concern. If it does not get warm it doesnot mean that its not working properly. Follow brake adjustment instructions within this manual Chain is too dry Apply chain lubricant to the chain
