Installation

Clean the bottom bracket threads in the frame . Set the left cup of the bearing assembly aside for now .

Apply a few drops of medium strength Loctite to the right bearing cup and insert the cartridge assem-

bly into the bottom bracket from the right side (drive side) . Carefully screw the right cup into the frame

with your hand by turning the cup counterclockwise (right cup is reverse threaded) while being cautious

not to cross the threads . Firmly tighten the right cup with the bottom bracket tool . Apply a few drops

of Loctite to the left bearing cup . Carefully screw the left cup into the frame with your hand by turning

clockwise while again being cautious not to cross the threads, and torque to 175 inch/lbs . If you do not

have a torque wrench, tighten the cup, but stop and twist the spindle with your hand periodically as you

go to assure that the cup is fully threaded into the frame but loose enough to allow the spindle to rotate

freely . If the rotation of the spindle feels rough or clunky loosen the cup and test again . Reinstall the

crank arms, drive belt and belt cover . Allow loctite to dry for 24 Hours before using the unit .

Use Loctite 242
