Whyte Getta-Grip Seat Clamp - Whyte C-7 Ridgeway Men’s Supplementary Service Manual

CAUTION! Avoid over-tightening the seat clamp.
In particular, "dropper" seat-posts such as SRAM Reverb may not work correctly if the seat
clamp is over tightened.
Figure 3. To adjust the seat height and/or direction, using the 5mm Allen key, undo the M6
Capscrew (1) just enough to allow the Seat Post to slide freely up and down. Set the height
and/or direction to the desired level. Re-tighten the M6 Capscrew (1) with the 5mm Allen
Key in the Torque Wrench to the 6Nm limit, as marked on the Plain Sleeve (4).
If a "dropper" seat-post is fitted, simultaneously depress the activation trigger and press
down on the saddle to compress the seat-post until it is fully down. Then release the activa-
tion trigger and the seat-post should rise up automatically. If this does not happen, gradual-
ly loosen the M6 Capscrew (1) with the 5mm Allen Key below the 6Nm limit, until the seat-
post rises automatically. Then firmly twist the saddle to confirm the seat-post is still secure-
ly gripped by the lowered torque value that allows the "dropper" seat-post to function cor-
rectly.
CAUTION! When adjusting the saddle height you MUST obey the Minimum insertion
depth requirement marked on the Seat Post (7). Also consult the seat-pin manufac-
turers instructions in conjunction with these notes.
