WARNING
Poorly tightened or loosening bolts can fail. Risk of accident!
Check the bolts by using a torque wrench once a month according to the
values indicated directly on the components and/or in the manuals of the
component manufacturers.
Clamping with two bolts in line
(a)
: Release both bolts two to three turns
anticlockwise, otherwise the whole assembly can come apart. Move the saddle
forward 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 prescribed by the seat post manufacturer.
Tighten both bolts evenly
(b)
so 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 necessary.
After fastening the saddle, check whether it resists tilting by bringing your
weight to bear on it once with your hands at either end of the saddle.
