Check the bolts by using a torque wrench
once a month according to the values indi-
cated directly on the components and/or in
the instructions of the component manufacturers on this
MERIDA CD-ROM.
Clamping with two bolts in line:
(a)
release both bolts
two to three turns counterclockwise, otherwise the
whole assembly can come apart. Move the saddle for-
ward or backward as desired to adjust the horizontal
position. You may have to give the saddle a light blow
to make it move. Please observe the markings on the
saddle rail.
Having found your preferred position, make sure both
clamp halves fit snugly around the saddle rails before
tightening the bolt(s) to the correct torque value as pre-
scribed by the seat post manufacturer.
Tighten both bolts evenly
(b)
so that the saddle remains
at the same angle. If you wish to lower the nose of the
saddle a little, tighten the front bolt clockwise. You might
have to loosen the rear bolt a little as well. To lower the
rear part of the saddle, the rear bolt has to be tightened
clockwise and the front bolt has to be released, if nec-
essary.
Check the strength while you press with your hands al-
ternate at the top and back of the saddle. The saddle
may not move

If you have a
single bolt system
(d)
, unscrew the fixing
bolt as far as possible without loosening the lock nut on
the outer side of the clamping device. In general, it is not
necessary to take the mechanism completely apart, if
it is already equipped with the correct outer clamps for
your saddle.
If you do find it necessary to unscrew the single fixing
bolt completely, remove it from the clamping device.
This releases the outer clamping parts. The inner clamp-
ing parts are held in position with a rubber retention
plate.
Mount the saddle rails into the inner clamping parts, add
the outer parts and re-insert the fixing bolt. If the width
of the saddle rails does not fit exactly into the clamp
grooves, do not try to force them in.
