INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PAGE 1
Please read all of the instructions before starting your installation.This could save you many trips to the hardware store.
The installation instructions for all models are much the same.
An experienced installer can do the job in 4 hours.It doesn't mater if it takes you 4 hours or 4 days.The important thing is to do the installation correctly and you will get 1000's of kilometers from your new EziRide Cycles motor.
You will need some basic tools,band aides,cable ties and you may want to fit an in line fuel filter which are available from motor cycle and lawn mower shops.
Please be careful not to over tighten the nuts and bolts.They can be broken if forced.
You are working on a bicycle not a truck.

FITTING THE REAR SPROCKET
Cut the rubber isolator ring between the holes in order to fit inside the spokes and around the axle.
Use either scissors or a knife.
Fit the isolator rings as shown.
Install the steel retainer plates and sprocket as shown.
The sprocket can be installed either side up if there is a problem aligning the chain.
But firstly try it with the convex side up as shown and insert the bolts.
Insert and install the 9 bolts and nuts.
This can be a bit of a juggling act and is probably the most difficult part of the installation.
Tighten the nuts in a star fashion to make sure the tension is equal on all sides.
An electric screw driver makes this job a bit easier.
Make sure the sprocket is centred by giving the wheel a spin.
MOUNTING THE MOTOR
You might want to put some tape on the bike frame to stop the frame from getting scratched during the motor installation.
If the front bicycle tube is too large as shown below, the motor can be made to fit by enlarging the hole using a file or dremel.
Alternatively you can use a dremel tool if you happen to have one.
Put a rag in the exhaust outlet to stop bits of metal getting in.
The motor should fit as shown below.
There are many other ways of fitting the motors to over sized frames available on http://motoredbikes.com/
EziRide Cycles have brackets for over sized frames for sale and are on display in the accessories section on our web page.
Fit the front and rear mounting bracket as shown below.
Be careful not to over tighten the nuts.They can be broken if forced.
Some customers like to put a bit of rubber between the motor mounts and the frame to reduce vibrations but is generally not needed with the 48cc and 55cc models.
The photo below shows a nice neat fit.
FITTING THE CHAIN
Remove the left hand sprocket cover.
Remove the spark plug
Feed the chain on using a spanner.
Select the chain length.
Cut the chain to length.
Better too long than too short.You can always take more links out later on.
The easiest way to do this is with a chain breaking tool but if you don't have one you can use an angle grinder or a chisel.
Fit the chain joining link.
Fit the clip with the open end to the front.
Important
Check the chain alignment.
Make sure that the chain is straight and running smoothly.
