Installation of the Leash Attachment Clip
•
NOTE The ski leash clip should be installed on any
binding that does not have a ski brake installed.
•
The toe piece must be off the ski to be able to install
the clip.
•
The leash clip can be installed on either the left or right
side of the toe piece.
•
Insert ends of the clip (12) into the holes on the
underside of the toe piece.
•
Fold the clip flush with the underside of the binding.
2.4.
Toe Installation
•
Slide the toe assembly (7) backwards onto the toe
mounting plate (5) from the front/tip end of the toe
mounting plate, and align the back edge of the toe
assembly with the 0 mm mark on the mounting plate.
•
Install the two toe positioning screws (3) using a #3
Pozidrive screwdriver and torque to
5.6 Nm
.
Note: the
toe position can be moved in two 7.5mm increments
to adjust the boot position on the ski and
accommodate larger or smaller boot sizes.
2.5.
Heel Installation
WARNING: Heel installations and removals from
the base plates must be performed with the
lateral release setting set to its minimum. Failure
to do this could result in damage to the binding.
•
Slide the heel assembly (10) forwards onto the heel
mounting plate (8) from the rear/tail end of the heel
mounting plate until it makes contact with the length
adjustment plate (9) and is approximately in the
position shown.
•
While pushing slightly
forward on the heel and
turning the length
adjustment screw clockwise
with a #3 Pozidrive
screwdriver, adjust the
position of the heel until it is
approximately in the centre
of it’s adjustment range, as
shown by the position
indicator.
•
If you are
not
installing the Onyx Ski Brake; install the
front cowling (11) by sliding it on from the front/tip of
the heel mounting plate (8) and installing the heel
cowling screws (4) into the heel with either a #1
phillips or a #1 Pozidrive screwdriver and torque them
to
1.1 Nm.
•
If you are installing the Onyx Ski Brake, refer to the
installations instructions included with the brake.
2.6.
Heel Location Setting
WARNING: Binding performance is sensitive to
the heel location being set accurately. Too large
a gap could result in the binding releasing too
easily; too small a gap will affect release values
and can cause interference between the boot
and binding while touring. It is very important to
have a 6mm gap between the boot heel and the
binding after installation.
•
Install a ski boot into the binding with the heel
positioned in ski mode.
•
Use the supplied 6mm G3 spacer tool (13) to set the
gap between the binding and boot. The shim should fit
snugly between th
e
binding and the boot.
Use a #3
Pozidrive screwdriver to adjust the boot length
adjustment screw
Note: Do not over tighten the
boot length adjustment screw.
