Main Features

Please Note

This trainer must be used with a completely smooth (no knobs or raised tread) tire.
Failure to do so will ruin the mag unit, your tire, and void any possible warranty.

Important Notes

• For use with a normal 2-wheel bicycle only. Do not use a tandem, recumbent, track racer or
other.

• The right side coupling has a black plastic cover (Grommet) in standard on LR340. This is for
protecting the quick release skewer's nut from scratching, but if you use a bike with the nut
type rear wheel axle, remove Grommet for better stability.

• Fits tire size between 24" and 700x45c (ETRTO 47-622). To use 24x1.75" or smaller tire, install
the supplied Small Wheel Adaptor between the Mag unit and the base bracket. 29" tires may
not be used on LR340.

• Some assembly required. Use correct tools (10mm spanner and M5 & M4 hex wrenches).
The kit contains only M5 hex wrench.

• Use the supplied rear quick release skewer for maximum stability. The hub clamping parts
(couplings) ts the supplied quick release skewer only. Minoura is not responsible for any
problem caused from using your own skewer.

• Use on at and level oor or ground for your safety.

• Adjust the roller pressure to the rear tire properly in order to maximize your tire life.

Tire and roller contact will eventually wear both your tire and the trainer roller.
Wipe the tire surface to remove any solid dust away before setting the bike on the trainer in
order to maximize the drive roller life.

• Check and adjust the remote shifter cable tension properly when you cannot set at L or H even

though you turn the shifter lever.

• Touching the spinning wheel and/or any other moving parts while training may cause serious
injury. Keep children and pets away from the trainer when in use.

• It is not possible to convert the remote controllable resistance unit to the non-remote version

one. Removing the remote shifting device means xing the resistance level at the highest
range.

• If you feel any strange noise or smell, stop using LR340 immediately and contact the retailer

where you purchased the trainer.

• To protect the oor or carpet from stain and sweat during workout, we recommend you to put

a sheet or mat under the trainer and bike.

• Any warranty will be void if you use LR340 for other purpose than instructed.
Minorua offers 1-year limited warranty on this product from the date of your purchase for any
problem caused by manufacturer's defect.
Any damage or problem caused by transporting process is not covered under warranty. Any

How To Setup Your LR340 Trainer

2.

Install the Mag unit and the Roller Pressure Adjust Knob set (MF-3) to the frame.

1.

Replace your rear wheel quick release skewer to the supplied one.

Minoura guarantees the stability only when using the supplied skewer due to the coupling inner
shape.

!

If your bike is not equipped with quick release skewer and it's a hub nut type, you
should remove the black plastic Grommet (Skewer Nut Protector) (F-9) from the
right side Coupling (F-1).
Minoura doesn't guarantee the stability if you don't remove the Grommet.

You don't need the supplied quick release skewer if your wheel is a hub nut type.
It's not possible to convert your wheel from the hub nut type to the quick release
skewer type unless replacing the hub.

!

Required Tools: 1 x 10mm Spanner & 1 x M4 Hex Wrench

(not supplied)

!

If you have overtightened the
pivot bolt, the Mag unit will not
move smoothly even if you
rotate the knob bolt.

slowly with its own weight
when you loosen the knob bolt.

Put the acorn spring and the flat washer to
the knob bolt.
Attach the Wing Nut from behind the
bracket on the frame, then screw the knob
bolt into the T-nut through the hole.
(see Fig. B-2)

Make sure the acorn shaped spring

direction and the at washer position

are as shown in Fig. B-2.

Failure will cause difculty on rotating.
