PowerTap SL+ Track Hub - Manual (Page 2)

ANT+ Sport
The PowerTap “Plus” Series uses ANT+ Sport wireless technology that allows you to use the PowerTap with other ANT+ Sport
devices that are capable of displaying power. If you are using a device other than CycleOps Joule or Cervo to display power, please
consult the user guide that came with the device. Note: While the PowerTap Track hub sends an ANT+ signal, it is recommended
by Saris Cycling Group to use a CycleOps Joule or Cervo for the purposes of using the manual zero function.
MAINTENANCE & SPECIFICATIONS
During the course of repair, DO NOT remove the torque tube. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Special tools are required
for assembly and calibration. If problems are suspected contact Saris Cycling Group.
BEARINGS
The power measuring components inside the PowerTap hub are highly complex and should only be serviced by Saris Cycling
Group. The bearings in the PowerTap hub do not require any adjustment. The bearings are sealed and do not require replace-
ment. Field replacement can cause permanent damage to the power measuring electronics and result in compromised sealing
and performance. If bearing problems are suspected please contact Saris Cycling Group.

HUB BATTERIES
Normal battery life for the hub batteries is 300 hours of
actual ride time. Use #357/303 or EPX76 Silver oxide batter-
ies (IEC-SR44) and always replace in pairs. Alkaline batteries
have a shorter life and less performance.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Use the battery cap removal tool (part# 7015) to unscrew the plastic cap on the non-drive side of the hub. Using the tool, unscrew
the plastic battery cover to expose the battery holder and batteries.
