3.2 Securing Your Item

For optimal security, it is recommended to use both the U-lock and the steel cable. The U-lock is ideal for securing the frame of your bike to an immovable object, while the steel cable can be used to secure the wheels, helmet, or other accessories.

  • U-Lock Usage: Loop the U-lock through your bike's frame and around a sturdy, immovable fixture (e.g., a bike rack, lamppost). Ensure the U-lock passes through a solid part of the frame, not just a wheel.
  • Steel Cable Usage: Thread the 5-foot steel cable through your front and rear wheels, and then secure its ends with the U-lock, or loop it through the U-lock itself. This prevents wheel theft.
  • Combined Security: For the highest level of protection, use the U-lock to secure the bike frame and one wheel to an unbreakable fixture, and then use the steel cable to secure the other wheel and any accessories (like helmets) to the U-lock or the secured frame.

8. Bilanagreining

8.1 Lock Not Opening

  • Röng samsetning: Double-check that you have entered the correct 4-digit combination. Ensure each number is precisely aligned with the indicator mark.
  • Stuck Mechanism: If the lock feels stiff, try applying a small amount of lubricant (e.g., graphite powder or silicone spray) to the combination wheels and the shackle insertion points. Work the combination and shackle a few times to distribute the lubricant.

8.2 Difficulty Setting New Combination

  • Reset Disk Position: Ensure the reset disk is fully turned 90 degrees clockwise before attempting to set the new code. It must be firmly in the reset position.
  • Original Code Alignment: Verify that the lock is set to the current (or factory default "0000") combination before initiating the reset process.

8.3 Concerns About Theft Resistance

While the NDakter lock is designed with heavy-duty anti-theft features, no lock is entirely impervious to determined attacks. To maximize security:

  • Always secure your item to an immovable object.
  • Use both the U-lock and the steel cable to secure the frame and both wheels.
  • Position the lock so that the keyhole (or combination dial) faces downwards, making it harder for tools to access.
  • Minimize the space inside the U-lock to prevent leverage attacks.
  • Park your item in well-lit, high-traffic areas whenever possible.
