      • If you are using an Allen Wrench, insert the head of the wrench into socket located on the pedal arm.

      • If you are using a Smart Wrench, place the jaws on the nut located between the pedal and pedal arm.

      • Loosen the pedals by turning the right pedal counterclockwise and the left pedal clockwise.

      • Remove the pedal from the socket.

      • Check the socket and bolt for rust and worn threads.

      • If you notice damages like rust or worn threads, you will need to refer to a separate repair guide specific to the type of damage.

      • If you do not see any damage, continue to Step 4.

      • Place the pedal back in the socket and tighten it until it is secure.

      • To tighten the pedals, turn the right pedal clockwise and the left pedal counterclockwise.

      • Once you feel resistance, turn the pedal about 1/8 of a rotation further to properly tighten it.

      • DO NOT use excessive force when you are tightening the pedal. This can lead to difficulty removing the pedal in the future.

Wenn das Rad auf dem Kopf steht, ist das linke Pedal rechts und umgekehrt.

My crank arm constantly comes loose, although I tightened it. I go to the bike repair store near my house, and they say that the bearing of the bottom bracket is worn. To fix this, I need to replace it with a new one, grease the new component, and tighten the bicycle crank.
