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.
•
All dealer’s manuals and instruction manuals can be viewed on-line on our website (http://si.shimano.com).

TO ENSURE SAFETY
TO ENSURE SAFETY
WARNING
•
Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the manuals when installing the product.
It is recommended to use genuine Shimano parts only. If parts such as bolts and nuts become loose or damaged, the bicycle may suddenly fall over,
which may cause serious injury.
In addition, if adjustments are not carried out correctly, problems may occur, and the bicycle may suddenly fall over, which may cause serious injury.
•
Be sure to wear safety glasses or goggles to protect your eyes while performing maintenance tasks such as replacing parts.
•
After reading the dealer's manual thoroughly, keep it in a safe place for later reference.
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
•
Intervals between maintenance depend on the use and riding circumstances. Clean the chain with an appropriate chain cleaner regularly. Never use
alkali based or acid based solvents, such as rust cleaners. If those solvent be used chain might break and cause serious injury.
•
Check the chain for any damage (deformation or crack), 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.
CAUTION
For Installation to the Bicycle, and Maintenance:
•
When installing and removing the plate unit, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the strong reaction force of the plate tension spring.
NOTE
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
•
If gear shifting operations do not feel smooth, wash the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts.
•
If looseness in the links is so great that gear shifting adjustments cannot be made, replace the derailleur.
•
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.
•
Using a frame with internal cable routing is strongly discouraged as it has tendencies to impair the SIS shifting function due to its high cable resistance.
•
Grease the inner cable and the inside of the outer casing before use to ensure that they slide properly.
•
Do not let dust adhere on the inner cable. If the grease on the inner cable is wiped off, the application of SIS SP41 grease (Y04180000) is
recommended. Do not use premium grease or other types of grease, otherwise it may deteriorate gear shifting performance.
•
Use an OT-SP sealed outer casing and cable guide for smooth operation.
•
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 that the rear fork ends are aligned, whether the cable is lubricated and that the outer casing
is not too long or short.
•
Periodically clean the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts (mechanism and pulleys).

TO ENSURE SAFETY
•
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.
•
The tension pulley has an arrow on it to indicate the direction of rotation. Install the tension pulley so that the arrow is pointing clockwise 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.
The actual product may differ from the illustration because this manual is intended mainly to explain the procedures for using

Then, while operating the lever just enough to close the gap in the lever, turn the crank arm.
When shifting to 3rd

TECH TIPS
The best setting is when the shifting lever is
operated just enough to close the lever gap
and the chain touches the 3rd sprocket and
makes noise.
Return the lever to its original position (the position where the lever is at the 2nd sprocket
setting and it has been released) and then turn the crank arm clockwise.
3
Operate lever to change gears, and check that no noise occurs in any of the gear positions.
4
For the best SIS performance, periodically lubricate all power-transmission parts.
5
TECH TIPS
If the chain is touching the 3rd sprocket and
making noise, turn the adjustment bolt
clockwise slightly to tighten it just until the
noise stops and the chain runs smoothly.
