IMPORTANT NOTES

• Read all instructions carefully before use. And Keep the manual handy at all times.

• Do NOT use trainer for any other purpose than instructed.

• The trainer is manufactured to precise standards. Disassembling without Minoura’s

approval may void your warranty.

• Minoura offers 1-year limited warranty on the Mag unit and 5-year on the frame.
For more detail, refer the enclosed “Minoura Limited Warranty Policy” card.

Use two-wheeled normal bikes only. Tandems and recumbent bikes may be used if balanced

!

correctly. Conrm if your wheel size is in the range between 24-inch and 29-inch / 700c.

You may use the quick release skewer currently on your bike, however we strongly recom-

!

mend replacing your quick release skewer with the supplied one and keep installing the cou­pling protector cap (F-9) on to the right side coupling of the trainer. Otherwise the stability will
not be guaranteed.
Minoura is not responsible to any problem caused by using your own skewer.

Remove the coupling protector cap when you use a hub nut type wheel.

!

Any hub with internal transmission system or very special type such as Shimano Saint or Hone
cannot be used with this trainer

Depending on the oor or carpet material, the rubber cap may stain. You should not put the

!

trainer directly on the oor, and use a specic oor protection mat or large towel under trainer.

Check the couplings supporting the rear hub for damage and cracks. Accidents may occur

!

from cracked or damaged couplings.

Setup the trainer on at, horizontal and level oor for safe training.

!

Open the legs fully to get maximum stability.
Keep both hands on the handlebar at all times and maintain a normal riding position.

Do not clamp the wheel axle by using the left side knob (F-8). The left side knob is only for

!

pre-adjusting the wheel position for the best pedaling efciency. Use the larger hub handle (F-7)
to tighten the bike to the trainer.

Do not over-tighten the Hub Clamp Handle. Over-tightening may cause damage to both the

!

trainer and bike frame. The clamp handle should be a snug and secure t. Do not force!

Before use, make sure all bolts and nuts are securely fastened.

!

Keep small children and pets away from the trainer, and keep hands and feet away from the

!

spinning rollers and wheels at all times.

Do not allow the rubber rollers to come in contact with the tire. Doing so may cause a cut and

!

puncture in your tire.
Make sure the rubber roller contacts the vertical area of the rim side wall only. Contacting the
slanted area on the tim should cause damage to the rubber roller and the rim surface.

Wipe all oil and moistures out from the rim surface and rollers everytime you use the trainer to

!

keep necessary brake performance of your bike.
