FITMENT OF BOTTOM BRACKET CUPS
EVO MAX (36X24 TPI ITA – 1,370X24)
• Check that the bottom bracket threads of your frame are com-
patiblewith the cups supplied with the bottom bracket. The mea-
surements and tolerances of the frame bottom bracket shell are
found in the Miche general brochure.
• Carefully check that the bottom bracket shell of your frame has
been correctly milled, so as to ensure correct alignment of the
bottombracket.
• Check the thread of the bottom bracket shell for imperfections
(dirt, burrs, etc), as these could damage the threads of the cups.
• Screw the right cup (A) fully onto the bottom bracket shell (B),
applying a tightening torque of 45-50 Nm (PIC. 1).
• Insert the spacers in the bottom bracket, making sure that the
compensator ring (E) is correctly positioned (PIC. 1). Then, screw
the left cup (C) onto the bottom bracket shell, applying a tighte-
ning torque of 45-50 Nm.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CORRECT ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEM-
BLY OF THE PISTARD CRANKSET
• Insert the spindle of the right crank (D) (Pic. 2) and attach the
left crank (F) (Pic. 3) using an allen 8mm (I) with a hexagonal
torque wrench (G) (Pic. 4) and apply a tightening torque of 45-47
Nm (Pic. 4).
Warning: a loosely tightened crankset could result in ac-
cidents, personal injuries or death.
• Once assembled, check that the crankset turns smoothly and
that there is no play.
ENGLISH
• To disassemble the crankset, insert an 8mm allen key (G) (Pic. 4)
in the left crank and turn it anti-clockwise. The screw cap acts
as a remover and the two cranks come apart.
MAINTENANCE OF THE PISTARD CRANKSET
• Have the chainset periodically checked (every 3 - 4 months) by
a qualified mechanic or specialist, to make sure there are no
cracks or any other signs of wear. Checking is especially im-
portant if the crankset has been hit by something or has been
involved in a fall.
Warning: abnormalities in the crankset resulting from
impacts and collisions could lead to accident, personal
injuries or death.
• Control periodically [every 500 km] the tension of the left hand
crank fixing bolts with a suitable quality Torque wrench. [45 to
47nm]
Attention, risk of serious accident and or death, if the
crank fixing bolts where to loosen due to not having been
tighten correctly
• If the crankset should need special maintenance (for example,
gears changed or bottom bracket replaced), contact a qualified
mechanic or specialist who works with genuine MICHE spare
parts.
Attention the PISTARD chainset must be services only
with original ADVANCED PISTA spares
.
• The female gear attachment is present in the right arm of the
crank [Fig.5], it is interchangeable, if necessary take off the fe-
male of the crank body, insert a 5mm Allen key and turn Counter-
clockwise.
• Never wash the chainset parts with pressure-fed water, because
water may penetrate the seals and cause permanent damage to
the internal components. We recommend washing the compo-
nents using a sponge, mild soap and water.
• Salt water environments (as found on winter roads and neat the
seaside) can cause galvanic corrosion on most bike parts. Care-
fully rinse, clean, dry and re-lubricate all exposed parts to avoid
damage, malfunctions and accidents.
