Lubrication

WARNING:

•Do not over lubricate. If oil gets on the wheel rims or the brake shoes, it will re- duce brake performance and a longer distance to stop the bicycle will be neces- sary. Injury to the rider or to others can occur.

•The chain can throw excess oil onto the wheel rim. Wipe excess oil off the chain.

•Keep all oil off the surfaces of the pedals where your feet rest.

•Using soap and hot water, wash all oil off the wheel rims, the brake shoes, the pedals, and the tires.

•Rinse with clean water and dry completely before you ride the bicycle.

•Using a light machine oil (20W), lubricate the bicycle according to the following table:
