Installing the Vector Components
The installation steps for the Vector 3 and Vector 3S systems
are very similar. Procedures that are specific to the Vector 3S
system are noted.
Preparing for the Installation
1
Remove the existing pedals.
2
Clean the threads, and remove old grease.
Installing the Pedals
This procedure is for the Vector 3 system. The Vector 3S system
installation is the same, but the power sensor components are in
the left pedal only. For more information, see About the Vector
3S System, page 2.
1
Install the right pedal first.
2
Apply a thin layer of grease on the pedal spindle threads.
3
Insert the spindle into the crank arm.
4
Hand tighten the spindle.
5
Use the pedal wrench to tighten the spindle.
NOTE: Garmin
®
recommends torque of 25 lbf-ft. (34 N-m).
6
Repeat steps 2 through 5 to install the left pedal.
NOTE: The left pedal spindle has a left-handed (reverse)
thread.
7
Move your bike chain to the largest chain ring and the
smallest cassette gear.
8
Rotate the crank arm to check for clearance.
NOTE: Garmin recommends 2 mm or more between the
pedal and the chain. If the pedal rubs the chain, you can add
one washer (included) between the spindle and the crank
arm to increase clearance. To maintain an equal q factor, you
can add one washer to the left pedal spindle. Do not use
more than one washer on each pedal.

Error codes are cleared after the issue is resolved and you have
