  • Page 3 When your TerraTrike arrives, carefully unpack the contents and inspect for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. If anything is amiss, contact the WizWheelz sales office immediately at (616) 940-1909. Checklist When you unpack, this is what you should have:...
  • Page 4: Assembly And Setup

    Phillips head screwdriver, wire cutters, pliers, English & metric Allen wrenches. If you don't feel qualified to perform any of the assembly and setup operations, make sure to contact a local bicycle shop for assistance. WizWheelz can recommend a good shop in most cities. Time Required For Assembly: I'm an expert bike mechanic °°°°°...
  • Page 5 Step 3. Putting on the front wheels: The front wheels are preconnected to their respective hub mounts, and have a left a right side orientation. The hub mounts will need to be connected to the yokes at the ends of the outrigger tubes. Remove the kingpin from the hub mount by unscrewing the kingpin nut.
  • Page 6 Step 5. Handlebar adjustment: Attach the steering brace to the frame using the nut and washer supplied. Loosen the bolts in the steering clamp. Set the handlebar up so the grips are pointing straight up (perpendicular to the floor). This is a good place to start, but you may want to adjust the angle later to suite you're your personal ergonomics.
  • Page 7 handlebar stays parallel with the outrigger tubes of the frame during these adjustments. Measure the distance between the frame and the leading edge (A), and then the trailing edge (B) of one wheel. Adjust that wheel's tierod until these measurements are the same.
  • Page 8 Turn the top adjustment screw to line up the derailleur guide pulley with the outside line of the smallest sprocket. (See Fig. 8) Route the rear (right) shift cable: • From the shifter on the handlebar • Under the steering system •...
  • Page 9 Push the derailleur arm so that the pulley wheel lines up with the center of the largest sprocket. Turn the bottom adjustment screw to secure this position. (See Fig. 11) Very bad things can happen to your rear wheel (the chain could shift into the spokes, and cut them) if this adjustment is not correct.
  • Page 10 Here is the front derailleur setup procedure: Your front derailleur has been preset for height by the factory. The front derailleur has "H" and "L" (high and low) adjustment screws similar to the rear. Set the "L" adjustment so the clearance between the inner plate of the derailleur and the chain is O.5mm.
  • Page 11 Shift to the large chainring. Set the "H" adjustment screw so the clearance between the outer derailleur plate and the chain is O.5mm. {See Fig. 15) Check the system by shifting to each ring. Step 8. Attaching the chain: The chain is guided by two idler wheels mounted under the frame.
  • Page 12 (See Fig. 17) Note: Chain length should be set at the factory, so you can attach it with the master links provided. Now go back to Step 7 and finish your derailleur setup. Step 9. Connecting the brake cables: The brake cables run directly from the brake levers to the front hubs.
  • Page 13 Step 10. Attaching the seat: First put the end caps in the seat frame. Then attach the seat mesh to the seat frame. Insert the ends of the seat frame into the narrow pockets in the seat mesh. (See Fig. 19) Wrap the remaining part of the mesh (with the grommets) around to the back of the seat frame, and lace the mesh tightly together in the rear (similar to lacing shoe laces).
  • Page 14 Next, connect the lower seat stays by screwing the bolts through the ends of the lower seat stays into the forward mounting holes on the top side of the dropouts, with the washers in between the seat stays and the frame. (See Fig. 21) There are two mounting holes on each dropout.

    desired gear. Turning: When turning you will find that the TerraTrike does not lean into a corner the way a regular bicycle does. It behaves more like an automobile. For this reason you will feel a tendency to be pulled to the outside of a turn. To counteract this force, lean into the center of the turn.
  • Page 16 Pads: Unless you are routinely making transcontinental jaunts, the brake pads should last many seasons. If they do ever need replacing, contact your local shop or WizWheelz to order replacements. Shifters: The shift cables will also stretch when new. You may need to adjust them occasionally as they break in.
