Figure 3.4.4
Rotate the QR stem to the
vertical position so that the lever is
against the head tube then close the
lever downward.
Figure 3.4.5
Retrieve the right foot platform assembly
(lower pole, ski, foot platform, and crank arm with chain
ring) and position next to right side of the frame. Make
sure the chain is looped over the BB spindle.
Figure 3.4.6
Rotate the BB spindle
so that the upper surface of the left
rectangular end piece on the spindle has
the shallow channel and is horizontal.
Figure 3.4.7
Lift the right crank arm so it is in the 6 o’clock
position and insert it onto the BB square spindle. Using the
8 mm hex wrench, screw the crank bolt into the spindle and
tighten to 30 ft lb, then wrap the chain around the chain ring.
Figure 3.4.8
Lift the right lower pole and fit it into the right Joint #1 clamp
base. Place the Joint #1 cap with greased screws over the pole and using the 4
mm hex wrench, screw each the 4 caps screws in about 5-10 turns. Add a little
grease to the inner surface of the lower pole.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure there is a little grease on the spindle so the crank arm slides on firmly.
Figure 3.4.9
Apply a little grease to the lower section of the right upper
pole, which has a brake lever and shifter, then slide it into the lower
pole to a level that fits the height of the user. The upper pole can also
be rotated toward the side to provide a comfortable width for the user.
Figure 3.4.10
The pole height lines
are used to set the approximate pole
height for the height of the user, from
< 5’ to approximately 7’.
Figure 3.4.11
With the 4
mm hex wrench, carefully
tighten the Joint #1
clamp in an X pattern so
that all the screws are
tightened evenly and the
space between the clamp
base and cap on the front
side of the pole is equal
to the space on the rear
side.
IMPORTANT:
A good starting pole height will position the user’s arm to have a 90°
elbow bend, with forearm parallel to the ground when standing on the platforms and
holding the grips of both poles in vertical position.
