Battery maintenance

Battery maintenance is the focus of electric bike maintenance. If the car is not used for a long time, the battery should be recharged once a month to avoid power loss, because power loss will cause battery damage. When charging, avoid charging in a high temperature environment to prevent battery expansion or gas generation. In addition, do not charge for a long time, and unplug the plug in time after fully charged to avoid overcharging and damaging the battery.

Tire maintenance

Tire maintenance is also very important. Check the tire pressure regularly to ensure that the tire is fully inflated to prevent tire deformation and wear. Check the tire pressure at least once a month, and pay attention to whether there are cracks or foreign objects embedded in the tire surface. Avoid slowing down when the road conditions are poor, and reduce unnecessary wear. The recommended tire pressure for Shengmilo series electric bikes can be found on the inner side of the tire.

Brake system

The maintenance of the brake system should also not be ignored. Check the brakes regularly to see if they are working properly, and adjust or replace the brake pads if necessary to ensure the safety and reliability of the brake system. It can also better ensure your safety.

Chain maintenance

‌Chain maintenance‌ In terms of chain maintenance, in order to maintain the chain of the electric bike, the chain should be oiled regularly to prevent the chain from rusting and wearing. During the long period of non-riding, the chain can be stored in lubricating oil‌.

Bearing lubrication

‌ Bearing lubrication‌ is also an important part of maintenance. Although the bearing is small, it has a great effect. If it is not filled with lubricating oil for a long time, it will cause dry grinding and affect the smoothness of riding. It may also cause abnormal noises in the bike. Regularly filling the bearing with lubricating oil can keep it running smoothly‌.

Line inspection

‌ Line inspection‌ is also important. The wires of electric vehicles are like blood vessels. Once a problem occurs, it may cause a safety accident. Check each joint regularly for looseness or water ingress, especially after the rainy season, and pay attention to whether corrosion occurs‌.

Parking environment

‌ The choice of parking environment‌ is also critical. Electric vehicles should be stored in a dry and cool place to avoid direct sunlight and rain erosion. Moisture-proof materials can be used to cover the vehicle to reduce the impact of moisture on the vehicle. ‌
