RECOMMENDED TORQUE SETTINGS FOR YOUR SCOTT BIKE
All bolted connections of the bike components have to be tightened carefully and
checked regularly to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the SCOTT bike.
This is best done with a torque wrench
that disengages as soon as the desired
torque value has been reached or a click-type torque wrench. Tighten carefully by
approaching the prescribed maximum torque value in small steps (0.5 Nm incre-
ments) and check in between the proper fit of the component. Never exceed the
maximum torque value indicated by the manufacturer!
WARNING
Where no maximum torque setting is given start with 2 Nm. Observe the
indicated values and observe the values on the components and/or in the
manuals of the component manufacturers. For additional information on
your bicycle and the web links for the component manufacturers, please visit
the manual pages of the bike brand you have purchased via your Quick Start
Manual.
Some components have the maximum permissible torque values printed on
them. Use a torque wrench and never exceed the maximum torque value! If
you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your SCOTT dealer.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Due to the unmanageable number of components on the market, SCOTT is
not in a position to foresee every product that will be replaced or newly as-
sembled by third parties. Therefore SCOTT denies any liability for such kind
of additions or modifications with regard to compatibility, torque values etc.
Whoever assembles or modifies the SCOTT bike shall ensure that the bike
was assembled according to the state-of-the-art in science and technology.
