7. Fixing the pedals to the crank-arms
7.1. Washer use
The washers supplied are only necessary in the following cases:
• The crank-arm producer requires the use of a washer.
• The crank-arm has a recessed seat and one or two washers must be used to ensure a
free space between sensor and crank-arm.
Pressing the sensor against the crank-arm when tightening the pedal may damage
it. This operation would invalidate the warranty. If necessary, use 1 or 2 washers
to ensure a free space of at least 1 mm between the sensor and crank-arm.
If a cadence sensor is tted near the pedal, remove it to avoid any contact with the Assioma sensor.
7.2. Tightening the pedals
Before tightening the pedals, apply a thin layer of grease to the pedal axle thread.
Tighten the pedal to the crank-arm using the supplied 8 mm hexagonal wrench at a
tightening torque of about 35-40 Nm (25-30 ft lb), a standard torque for the tightening
of many pedals. If the crank-arm producer species a different tightening torque,
apply it.
