Before fitting the unit make sure that the stand is perfectly positioned on the floor, completely opened, and that the support plate is horizontal.

TAKE CARE, AS THE UNIT IS VERY HEAVY AND

COULD CAUSE THE STAND TO CLOSE.

MOUNTING THE BIKE ON THE STAND

First of all, completely lower the unit 2, by loosening the stand adjustment screw. If the handle 5 is locked, move the lock ring toward the handle as shown in illustration 5.

Adjust the space between the bushings by turning the handle, anti-clockwise as far as it will go. Make sure that the rear wheel QR skewer is well tightened. To have a safe locking of the bicycle on the stand, make sure that the left support cup (where the quick release lever is blocked) is positioned with the undercutting facing upwards (see ill. 7)

Place the bike on the stand by fitting the left-hand side of the rear QR skewer into the left-hand side bushing of the stand 1. Turn the handle 5, to tighten the right- hand support of the hub housing until the right-hand bushing touches the right-hand end of the QR skewer. Then rotate the handle 5 by about half a turn in order to lock the bike to the stand.

Lock the handle by moving the lock ring towards the stand (illustration 6). When the ring is in this position, the handle can no longer turn.

Check the stability of the bike by pulling and pushing the top tube of the frame and the saddle.

If the bike is unstable, make sure that the

QR skewer and its lever are correctly positioned and that the lock pin is well tightened. If the quick-release device is not compatible with the bushings, it needs to be substituted with one that is compatible.

Tighten the adjustment screw on the support plate until the roller touches the wheel.

Then rotate the adjustment screw by three turns in order to obtain the correct pressure of the roller on the wheel. If the wheel slips while you are pedalling, rotate the adjustment screw by another complete turn.

Illustration 8 shows the correct position of the bike mounted to the stand.
