Fixing of shift/brake lever to the handlebar
−
Remove all sharp edges and burrs from the clamping surface of the shifter and the clamp
before starting the assembly. Therefore use a fine grid sandpaper.
−
Use isopropyl alcohol or brake degreaser to clean the shift/brake lever body and
handlebar surfaces.
−
Do not use lubricants at all.
−
Make sure you are assembling the brake lever only on the abrasive surface of the
handlebar.
−
Always use friction enhancer (carbon paste) on clamping surfaces.
−
Only use as much tightening torque as needed to fix the shift/brake lever to the
handlebar.
−
Do not exceed the torque limit for the handlebar or the shift/brake lever. Use maximum
4 Nm of torque for the shift/brake lever clamping at the handlebar (Figure 4).
WARNING
max. 4 Nm
