MAINTENANCE
2. To maintain the easy adjustability of the re-
sistance system, the threads on the lower end
of the brake rod should be lubricated. First,
turn the resistance knob clockwise until it
stops. Next, look under the right or left side of
the frame and locate the brake rod, which has
two lock nuts on its lower end. Apply a small
amount of synthetic grease (white lithium
grease) to the threads on the brake rod above
the two lock nuts. Turn the resistance knob
counterclockwise until it stops.
3. Some parts of the Tomahawk IC3 Indoor
Cycle may become loose as a result of
repeated use. Check pedals, toe clips and
pedal straps, and make sure that they are
properly tightened. Next, check all exposed
screws, bolts, and nuts. Make sure that they
are properly tightened. Finally, check the
saddle to make sure that it is not loose or
damaged. Please use Locktite on loose crank
arm and pulley screws.
4. The brake pad will become worn as a
result of repeated use. The Tomahawk IC3
Indoor Cycle should not be used if the
emergency brake system is not working
properly (see page 14)! Should you feel
that the resistance system's functions are
deficient, it is essential to fine-tune the
resistance system before the bike is used
again! Please check the setting of the brake
system as follows: First turn the resistance
regulator on the brake system as far as it
will go to the left (minimum braking effect).
If the setting is correct, the brake pads
should be flush with the flywheel and barely
touching so that it is possible to cycle with
a barely noticeable amount of resistance.
The brake pad can be adjusted using a 10
mm wrench. Next, check the brake pad for
signs of wear. If the brake pad does show
signs of excessive wear, thoroughly soak the
brake pad with lubricant spray using the 2
lubrication holes (B). Wipe off the excess.
