Clip-in pedals

Forwards

Before riding, check that the stem is secure and will not twist. To do this, stand in front of the pedelec and place the front wheel between your legs. Grab the ends of the handlebars and try to turn the handlebars against the front wheel. The handlebars must be hard to turn! If the handlebars and stem can be twisted, do not ride it! First tighten the stem’s fork tube clamping screws properly. This must be done using a torque wrench.

Your Fischer pedelec with clip-in pedals is delivered with pre-assem- bled connectors on the cranks. Fol- low the instructions below to attach or re- move the pedals. Attaching clip-in pedals Place the pedal’s hexagonal fastener head into the connector’s hex socket and push the pedal into the opening 1 . You should hear it click into place. Then pull the pedal outward and check that it is firmly attached 2 .

Apply assembly grease to both threads before assembling the pedals.

Note that the right pedal has a right- hand thread and therefore must be turned clockwise, while the left ped- al must be turned anticlockwise. Use the in- cluded 15 mm open-end wrench or a special long pedal wrench. The appropriate tighten- ing torque is 40 Nm. If the pedals are mixed up or cross- threaded, the threads will be dam- aged. The pedals could break off from the crank, which can lead to a crash and severe injuries. To correctly and safely adjust the saddle and the seat position, follow the instructions on pages 17 and 18 of the original operating manual. You can find the required tightening torques on the part or in the section titled “Tightening Torques” in the original instruction manual.

For a Speedlifter stem, this is the lowest clamp- ing screw on the Speed- lifter. The correct tight- ening torque in this case is 6–8 Nm. Screw-on pedals The pedals are marked “L” for “left” and “R” for “right”. Screw the right pedal into the crank arm on the right side and the left pedal on the opposite side.
