IMPORTANT NOTICE
•
This dealer’s manual is intended primarily for use by professional bicycle mechanics.
Users who are not professionally trained for bicycle assembly should not attempt to install the components themselves using the dealer’s manuals.
If any part of the information on the manual is unclear to you, do not proceed with the installation. Instead, contact your place of purchase or a local
bicycle dealer for their assistance.
•
Make sure to read all instruction manuals included with the product.
•
Do not disassemble or modify the product other than as stated in the information contained in this dealer’s manual.
•

TO ENSURE SAFETY
TO ENSURE SAFETY
WARNING
•
Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the manuals when installing the product.
Only use SHIMANO genuine parts. If a component or replacement part is incorrectly assembled or adjusted, it can lead to component failure and cause
the rider to lose control and crash.
•
Wear approved eye protection while performing maintenance tasks such as replacing components.
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
•
Clean the chain and QUICK-LINK with an appropriate chain cleaner regularly. Intervals between maintenance depend on the use and riding
circumstances. Never use alkali based or acid based solvents such as rust cleaners. If those solvents are used the chain or QUICK-LINK might break and
cause serious injury.
•
Check the chain for any damage (deformation or cracking), skipping, or other abnormalities such as unintended gear shifting. If any problems are
found, consult a dealer or an agency. The chain may break, and you may fall.
•
Use only with cassette sprockets with compatible tooth combinations. 11-42T is the only cassette sprocket compatible with RD-M6000-GS. Cassette
sprockets with other tooth combinations cannot be used. If a product with an incompatible tooth combination is used, the chain could become
derailed from the outside of the smallest sprocket and the user could fall off.
When using TL-CT12
•
Be careful not to get injured by the blade or needle while working.
•
Be careful not to get your fingers pinched by the tool while working.
•
Keep the tool out of the reach of small children.
NOTICE
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
•
For SHADOW RD+, be sure to check that the plate unit cover is installed before riding the bicycle.
•
If gear shifting operation does not feel smooth, consult the place of purchase for assistance.
•
The gears should be periodically washed with a neutral detergent then lubricated. In addition, cleaning the chain and QUICK-LINK with a neutral
detergent and lubricating them can be an effective way of extending the life of the chain and QUICK-LINK.
•
Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration from normal use and aging.
•
For maximum performance we highly recommend SHIMANO lubricants and maintenance products.
For Installation to the Bicycle, and Maintenance:
•
Depending on the shape of the frame, the rear derailleur may interfere with the chainstay. Use the B-screw to adjust so that the rear derailleur does
not interfere with the chainstay.
•
Grease with SIS SP41 grease (Y04180000) the inner cable and the sliding portions of the outer casing before use to ensure that they slide properly. Do
not let dust adhere to the inner cable.
•
To ensure smooth operation, use OT-SP41 outer casing and a cable guide.
•
Use an outer casing which still has some length to spare even when the handlebars are turned all the way to both sides. Furthermore, check that the
shifting lever does not touch the bicycle frame when the handlebars are turned all the way.
•
If gear shifting adjustments cannot be carried out, check the alignment of the dropout and check if the cable is lubricated or if the outer casing is too
long or too short.
•
Periodically clean the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts (mechanism and pulleys).
•
Depending on the model, the guide pulley has arrows on it to indicate the direction of rotation. Install the guide pulley so that the arrows are
pointing counterclockwise when looking at the outer side of the derailleur.
•
If you hear abnormal noise as a result of looseness in a pulley, you should replace the pulley.
