Das Schwalbe Buch: Ein Ratgeber
This is a clear repair manual for the East German Simson Schwalbe scooter. It explains maintenance and repair work step by step, covering the engine, brakes, frame, electrical system, ignition, and general care. It is useful for everyday owners and hobby mechanics alike.
The book includes many black-and-white photos, technical drawings, and tables that show how parts are built, taken apart, and put back together. It is based on original documents from the East German manufacturer, so the information is still accurate today.
Thanks to the detailed pictures and easy-to-follow instructions, anyone can carry out maintenance, find faults, and make repairs - even without much mechanical experience.
The Schwalbe has a 50 cc two-stroke single-cylinder engine, drum brakes, a steel frame, and usually a three- or four-speed gearbox. This manual makes it much easier to service, restore, or repair this classic scooter.
