2.2.2 Clean Crank Arm
Thoroughly clean the crank arm with soap and water to
remove all dust and residue from sanding. Allow the crank
arm to fully dry before adhering the pod.
2.3 Adhering the Pod
Before adhering the pod, ensure the following items are
readily accessible:
• Precision TM pod
• Precision TM install band
• Precision TM install tool
• Cleaning wipes (2x)
• Epoxy adhesive packs
• Adhesive applicator
• Clean printer paper
1.2.4 Marking Install Location
With the Precision
TM
pod fixed onto the crank arm as shown
in section 1.2.2, place a small mark on your crank using a
pencil or permanent marker adjacent to the center mark
on the pod. This is use to mark the location of the pod for
installation using the provided epoxy adhesive.

stallation – do not use the adhesive if it has
been opened for more than 5 minutes.

2. Pod Installation
2.1 Install Location
Prior to installing the Precision TM power meter on your crank
arm, ensure the pod has the necessary clearance for the
bicycle as shown in igure 1.2, in section 1. Once a suitable lo-
cation for the pod has been found, mark the install location
as shown in section 1.2.4.
2.2 Preparing Crank Surface
Before the Precision TM pod can be adhered to the crank
arm, the crank arm surface must be sanded and thoroughly
cleaned.
Do not attempt to dry the crank arm with
paper towel or a cloth that may leave lint
or other particles on your crank. To reduce
drying time, you may use a lint free shop
towel to dry the crank surface.
!
Do not open or mix the adhesive pack until you
are ready to apply the adhesive for installation
– do not use the adhesive if it has been opened
and/or mixed for more than 5 minutes.
2.3.1 Prepare Adhesive
Tear open the two epoxy adhesive packets squeeze the ad-
hesive onto a clean piece of printer paper. Mix the adhesive
thoroughly with the adhesive applicator.
Only perform the pod installation in tempera-
tures above 20°C or 68°F – doing so will not
allow the adhesive to cure properly and will
impact the performance and reliability of the
power meter.
