Use a torque wrench to tighten the clamping screws. Observe the
speciedtorquesetting.Ifnovalueisshownonthecomponent,use
the torque settings from the following table:

M5/M6/M7/M8 M5:5/M6:10/M7:14/M8:22
Failure to comply can result in screws/bolts becoming loose, tearing
away or fracturing. If that happens while you are riding the bike,

screws are overtightened, components can also be damaged.
3.3.1 Screw supports: Shifting and tilting the saddle
1. Loosen the clamping screw by turning it
anticlockwise. Turn the screw completely
two to three times at most or the whole
mechanism could fall apart.
2. Move the saddle backwards or forwards as
required.
3. Tilt the bicycle saddle to the desired angle.
4. Tighten the clamping screw by turning it clockwise with a torque
wrench.
5. Ensure that the newly-tightened saddle does not tip; test it by pressing
down on the front and back alternately.
3.3.2 Twin-screw supports: Shifting and tilting the saddle
DANGER
Screw the clamping screws fully in a straight position in the nuts.
Failure to do so can result in the screws tearing out of the nuts.
