 second new bearing.

 rollers’.
Care, storage
Inline skates are pieces of technical sports and 
leisure equipment and they therefore become 
worn depending on the skill and style of each 
skater. We recommend that you clean and dry 
the inline skates thoroughly after use. Remove 
any small stones and other objects that may 
have become trapped in your rollers. Remove 
any sharp edges that may have formed during 
skating. Always keep the inline skates in a dry 
place.
• Clean your ball bearings with a dry
cloth after skating. Wet or damp ball
bearings must be dried using a clean
cloth. lubricate the bearings from
the outside with a suitable bearing
grease to prevent the formation of
 external rust. 
• bearings are usually closed and 
cannot be lubricated inside. Worn
ball bearings must be replaced.

• rollers or ball bearings are noisy
 Smooth surfaces extend the life of the rollers. 
 Try harder rollers for harder surfaces and for 
 use in difficult conditions. 
• rollers wear quickly
 Glatte Oberflächen verlängern die Lebens- 
 dauer der Rollen. Probieren Sie härtere 
 Rollen für härtere Oberflächen und Nutzung 
 unter erschwerten Bedingungen.
• rollers block
 Do not fasten the axle bolts too tightly.
• Skate pulls to the left or right 
 This can depend on the user. Exchange the 
 rollers that show signs of one-sided wear.
Rollers become worn. The wear depends on 
many factors such as skating style, surfaces, the 
size and weight of the user, weather conditions, 
the roller material and its degree of hardness. It 
is therefore necessary to exchange them every 
so often.
• Unscrew the axle bolts (2) on the inline skate 
 from the frame (1) using the two Allen keys 
 supplied. 
• Remove the axle bolts and remove the 
 roller (3). 
• Install the new roller into the frame and fix it 
 with the axle bolts.
After changing the rollers:
If the roller scrapes on the side after the 
exchange, or if it touches the edge of the 
frame, please do not use the roller! Please 
ensure that all screws are still secure after the 
first few minutes of use and that nothing has 
become detached or loosened. 
Re-install the rollers in order to ensure that 
they are running smoothly and no sounds are 
emitted from the bearings.
Important!
new rollers make the inline skates
taller. this changes the distance to the
ground therefore also the braking cha-
racteristics. for this reason, you must
adjust or exchange the brake block.
Changing the ball bearing 
(figure o)
note:
the quality of the ball bearing and its
maintenance are extremely important
for the smooth running of the inline
skates. 
• Remove the roller (1) as described above 
 (pages 12-13).
• Push a bearing (3) out by pressing on a 
 spacer (2) with an Allen key and then 
 remove the spacer.
• Push the other bearing out by pressing on it 
 with an Allen key.
