Install the boom on the main frame tube
There is a boom shim inside of the main frame. The boom will fit very snug inside your
frame.
First insert the boom clamp on the boom with the indexing tab in the channel of the
boom (make sure the indexing tab is toward the bottom bracket). Slide the boom clamp
about half way up then insert the boom into the main frame. Now you can slide the
boom clamp over the main frame tube and adjust the boom to the approximate length
and tighten the quick releases enough to keep it from slipping. You can adjust it to the
correct length later.
Never lubricate
or wax the part
of the boom that fits inside the frame.
CAUTION: Make sure the boom
clamp is tight enough, so the boom will
not twist while you pedal. Just like a
bicycle seat post clamp, it is the rider
responsibility to check for the boom
clamp tightness. The boom clamp is
designed for a high-pressure clamp
action. It also includes a plastic shim to
be installed between the boom and the main frame for zero gap and increased
clamping action. Make sure the plastic shim is correctly placed and that the boom clamp
is tight enough to avoid the boom to spin inside the frame. If for any reason, you are
unable to install or tighten the boom clamp enough, please don't ride and contact your
Catrike dealer. Failure to do so might cause the boom to twist and cause damage to the
Catrike or even cause injury.
