Tuck E-wire bundle inside motor cavity using 
the open space on the non-drive side. Carefully 
lower motor into frame. E-wire bundle and main 
power harness should group and route along the 
non-drive side up to in front of the motor and into 
the downtube.

17

Plug the E-wires into the motor on the  
non-drive side receptacle using Shimano  
E-wire tool.Computer and Remote Switch wires 
can be plugged into either circular port. Speed 
Sensor wire end is keyed and will only fit into  
one corresponding keyed port on the motor.  
Use caution to make sure the correct port is  
being used.

18

Using 2-4 small zip ties, bundle the group 
of E-wires cleanly together, adding loops as 
necessary. Keep bundle as close to frame and 
motor as possible to minimize free length.

Make sure that brake, shifter (if applicable), and 
dropper (if applicable) housing is routed cleanly 
from downtube into motor cavity and can be 
pushed relatively easily up against the frame wall.

Using care to not pinch E-wires or crimp any 
housing, gently press motor into cavity until 
fasteners can be loosely installed. Install 6x Motor 
Mount Shoulder Screw (4.21) with Washer (4.28)
through frame and into Motor.

After drive-side screws have been torqued, 
tighten non-drive side screws. The motor 
bushings should extract and fill space against  
the frame. 

Torque remaining screws to 12 Nm.

Attach the Motor Guard (4.67) to the Motor using 
2X supplied Shimano phillips screws (hand-tight). 
Install screws into the two side holes in the guard.

size for bike) over the Lower Edge Guard.
