User manual MINOURA E-RDA-1050R-POWERMATIC

[. . . ] Check the couplings supporting the rear hub for damage and cracks. Accidents may occur from cracked or damaged couplings. A) You should not tighten the wheel axle by tightening the left side knob. This is for pre-adjusting the wheel position to the exactly center of the drive roller only. [. . . ] The best position should be each indicator can be seen equally, but if your rim is narrow, you should adjust the wheel position to be a little left (toward Mag side) to prevent unexpected slippage problem. NOTE: Note that the left side knob is NOT for tightening the axle. Clamping wheel securely must be done by the right side hub handle. (Fig. H) USING THE PLATIC SKEWER NUT PROTECTOR We recommend that you use the supplied skewer if at all possible. This will guarantee a fit with our couplings and remove any chance of misalignment. Hole (Fig. I) The right side coupling has a black plastic skewer nut protector (called a "Grommet"). This is to protect your skewer from damage during use, however, should you choose to use your own skewer, you should use the supplied Grommet to insure a better fit. 5If your skewer nut design doesn't fit to the Grommet, you can remove it by inserting a rod or a pen to the hole (see Fig. I) and then lifting up the Grommet. NOTE: We will NOT guarantee any fitting problem or accident caused by using your own skewer on the trainer. When you use the supplied skewer, you should keep the Grommet on the coupling. -5- HOW TO INSTALL THE REMOTE LEVER You can install the remote lever on anywhere the diameter is between 22. 2mm (7/8") and 31. 8mm (1-1/4") like as on the handlebar. 1 2 Fully loosen the knob bolt on the plastic holder until it stops then push down the bolt to open the holder. J) Place the holder onto the handlebar, shut the holder, and pull up the bolt then tighten it. L) Depending on the diameter of your handlebar, you must adjust the shim as follows; · 22. 2mm (7/8") - 25. 4mm (1"): Install both shims. · 28. 6mm (1-1/8"): Install either right or left side shim. · 31. 8mm (1-1/4"): Remove both shims. USING THE MAG RESISTANCE UNIT ! When you install the shim on the plastic holder, make sure the direction of the shim as shown in Fig. L. The Mag unit has 7 different levels of load force for replicating actual riding resistance. You can set your preferred maximum resistance point between high (H) and low (L) by adjusting the lever on the thumb shifter type remote lever device (see Fig. The resistance level will automatically be controlled from zero to maximum depending on your riding speed. You may also adjust the load force by shifting up or down among your gears, depending on the level desired. We recommend that you start with a medium to low load force and gradually work up, increasing force as your muscles warm up. (Fig. M) About the Maximum Resistance Level Please Note: The remote lever of the PowerMatic sets the highest resistance level of the Mag unit, not the overall resistance like other trainers. The resistance will always start from zero even you set the remote lever at any position. It will be increased when you start pedalling gradually and progressively. You can see it as the motion of the side indicator on the Mag unit (see Fig. [. . . ] If you want to adjust the starting speed of the resistance and change it to be higher or lower to suit your workout, you can do so by pushing down the Governor ring and rotating, then releasing the ring. (Fig. P) If you increase the inside spring tension by turning the Governor to the direction of clockwise, the starting speed will become higher. If you loosen the spring tension by turning the Governor to the direction of counter-clockwise, the startting speed will become lower. CAUTION ON YOUR FLOOR PROTECTION If you train on a carpeted surface, consider using a rubber mat or a mat of other non-marking material to eliminate the possibility of marking the carpet by the trainer, bike, or bodily fluids. Minoura cannot be held responsible for any stain incurred while using a Minoura product. FOR MORE INFORMATION Minoura warrants this trainer to be free of defects in workmanship and materials for two years from the date of purchase. [. . . ]
