8.1 BRAKE PADS MOUNTING
Remove original pads from the brakesets of your bicycle and replace them
with Deda original brake pads provided with the wheels. Make sure to respect
the correct mounting direction of brake pads by watching the indications
directly present on the pad surface.
If present on the brake pad holder, tighten the security screw to secure the
pad in position.
Adjust the brake pads in order to be aligned with the rim brake surface and to
be around 2mm distant from the upper edge of the rim (Fig. 4).
Before using the bicycle, always make sure that the installed brakesets installed
work correctly and brake pads have been mounted according to the wheels user’s
manual. Frequently inspect the brake pads and, if necessary, remove metal ships
or other foreign debris from their surfaces. In rain conditions the braking power
decrease so that the braking distance of the bicycle will increase considerably.
Once the wear limit of the brake pads has been reached (a Wear Limit is indicated
on the pad surface), discontinue riding the bicycle and replace them with original
Deda Elementi spare parts.
WARNING:
The brake pads installation require a specific knowledge of the
product. In case of doubts always contact a official Deda Elementi dealer or
a qualified bicycle technician. The incorrect installation of the brake pads can
cause serious accident and injury for the user.
WARNING
: Metal debris and foreign objects included into the brake pad surface
will compromise the braking performance and cause severe rim damages that
may result in wheel failure and cause serious accident to the user.
