FITTING A NEW CABLE
• Screw the barrel adjuster (fig. 21) fully clockwise so that it is at its shortest setting, then unscrew by 2
turns
• Select the lowest gear (-) and then press the shift lever downward so it does not obscure the cable
entry hole
• Feed the gear cable into the shifter in a slightly downward direction and through the cable bush
• If there is resistance pushing the cable through the bush pull the cable back a little and try again
• Once you can feel the cable pass through the bush keep feeding it until you feel slight resistance
• Keep feeding it through so that it follows around the guide inside the shifter and exits through the barrel
adjuster
DO NOT FORCE THE CABLE AS THIS MAY DAMAGE THE SHIFTER

SETTING THE GEARS
• Insert the gear cable into the housing
• Thread it all the way through so that it exits through the end of the housing
• Using needle nose pliers or similar pull the cable through the housing and insert fully into the
connector
• Tighten the grub screw to secure the cable in the connector
• Use the barrel adjuster on the shifter to make adjustments to the cable tension as needed (fig. 21)
• Unscrewing the adjuster will add more tension to the cable and improve shifting into the lower gear
• Screwing the adjuster inwards will reduce tension and improve shifting into the high gear
