Setting The Tooth Backlash - Reely ROAD Red Devil Notice D'emploi

g) Setting the Tooth Backlash
The distance between the motor pinion (A) and main pini-
on (B) must be as low as possible without the gears being
too tight.
How to achieve this?
Loosen the two attachment screws (D) of the motor hol-
ding plate (C) slightly. Then push the motor with the motor
pinion in the direction of the main gear with light pressu-
re.
The motor pinion and the main pinion now engage without
clearance. However, this is not perfect for the service life
of the gears!
Put a thin paper strip (no more than 80 g paper) between
the motor pinion and the main pinion. Then manually turn
the main pinion so that the paper strip is pulled in between
the two pinions.
The pressure of the paper pushes back the electric motor
by the required measure.
Now tighten the motor's attachment screws (D) in this
position.
If you then turn back the main cogwheel so that the paper
strip can be removed again, both cogwheels should have
the correct distance.
Ideally, the motor pinion should be as close as possible to the main pinion without the teeth touching and the
gears therefore being tight.
If the cogwheels (motor pinion and main cogwheel) are too far apart, the main cogwheel teeth will be virtually
shaved off by the motor pinion after a few seconds - this will void the warranty/guarantee!
If the motor pinion presses against the main cogwheel (teeth are running without play), this will decrease
performance, increase power consumption (the motor already requires lots of power to turn the main gear)
and lead to premature wear.
