About these instructions

034-11572_1.0_29.08.2018

1 About these instructions

Read these operating instructions before

commissioning the bicycle to ensure you use all the

functions correctly and safely. The operating

instructions are not a substitute for personal

instruction by the supplying specialist dealer. The

operating instructions are a component part of the

bicycle. Therefore, if it is re-sold at a later time, they

must be handed over to the subsequent owner.

These operating instructions are mainly directed at the

rider and operator of the cycle. In general, they are

technical laypersons.

Staff at all specialist dealers have specialist training

and qualifications, and are therefore capable of

identifying risks and preventing hazards which may

arise during maintenance, servicing and repairs on the

bicycle. Information for specialist staff does not require

non-professionals to take any action.

1.1 Manufacturer

The manufacturer of the bicycle is:

HERCULES GmbH

Longericher Straße 2

50739 Köln, Germany

Tel.: +49 4471 18735 0

Fax: +49 4471 18735 29

specialist staff (e.g. bicycle mechanics) are clearly

marked with a tool symbol.
