Poorly tightened or loosening bolts can fail. Risk of accident!

Check the bolts by using a torque wrench once a month according to the
values indicated directly on the components and/or in the manuals of the
component manufacturers on this SCOTT info CD.
Clamping with two bolts in line (d): Release both bolts two to three turns an-
ticlockwise, otherwise the whole assembly can come apart. Move the saddle
forward or backward as desired to adjust the horizontal position. You may have
to give the saddle a light blow to make it move. Please observe the markings on
the saddle rail.
Having found your preferred position, make sure both clamp halves fit snugly
around the saddle rails before tightening the bolt(s) to the correct torque value
as prescribed by the seat post manufacturer.
Tighten both bolts evenly (e) so the saddle remains at the same angle. If you
wish to lower the nose of the saddle a little, tighten the front bolt clockwise. You
might have to loosen the rear bolt a little as well. To lower the rear part of the
saddle, the rear bolt has to be tightened clockwise (e) and the front bolt has to
be released, if necessary. After fastening the saddle, check whether it resists
tilting by bringing your weight to bear on it once with your hands at either end
of the saddle (f).

NOTE!
I
The manufacturers of saddles deliver their products with detailed manuals.
You find these manuals on this SCOTT info CD. Read them carefully before
adjusting the position of your saddle. If you are in doubt or if you have any ques-
tions, contact your SCOTT dealer.
Adjustment of saddle position and tilt
With patent seat posts (a) one or two bolts fix the clamping mechanism, which
controls the tilt and the horizontal position of the saddle. Some seat posts have
two bolts side-by-side.
Release the bolt(s) at the top of the seat post. Release the bolt(s) two to three
turns anticlockwise at the most, otherwise the whole assembly can come apart.
Move the saddle forth or back, as desired. You may have to give the saddle a
light blow to make it move.
Please observe the markings on the saddle rail. Make sure the seat of the saddle
remains horizontal (b) as you retighten the bolt(s). Your SCOTT bike should
stand on level ground while you adjust the saddle.
Having found your preferred position, make sure both clamp halves fit snugly
around the saddle rails before tightening the bolt(s) to the correct torque value
as prescribed by the seat post manufacturer.
Retighten the bolt(s) with a torque wrench according to the manuals of the
manufacturer. After fastening the saddle, check whether it resists tilting by
bringing your weight to bear on it once with your hands at either end of the
saddle (c).
