Assembly
5.2 Mounting the pedals
ATTENTION
Incorrectly mounted pedals!
If right and left pedals are mixed up during assembly, the threads may get damaged. Riding stability can be affected by loose
pedals.
Ensure
correct assignment of the right and left pedals during assembly.
ATTENTION
Damaged crank and pedal threads!
If the pedals are difficult to screw into the thread of the crank during assembly, the threads may be getting damaged.
Check the correct assignment of the right and left pedals.
The left pedal has a left-hand thread.
To begin with, only screw the pedals into the thread by hand.
The pedals are marked
R
(right) and
L
(left). That relates to the
forward-facing direction of travel. The chamfered edges indi-
cate on which side the pedal is mounted.
y
The
R-pedal
is mounted on the side with the chain/belt.
y
The
L-pedal
is mounted on the side with the brakes.
1. Screw the pedals into the thread of the crank by hand by
turning them a few turns in the direction of travel.
y
When doing so, align the thread of the pedal with the
crank arm and do not tilt or skew it when screwing it in.
y
If it is difficult or impossible to screw in: Check whether the
correct pedal is selected for the pedal side (the left pedal
has a left-hand thread). Check whether the thread has
been incorrectly set at an angle when screwing it in.
2. When the first threads have been screwed in, insert a 6 mm
hex key through the thread in the crank arm and hand-tighten
the pedals.
y
Resistance should only be felt at the end of the thread.
