Initial Installation Checks - Matrix IC5 Manual

INITIAL
INSTALLATION CHECKS
Instructions stated in this manual must be performed during initial installation of the Matrix
indoor cycle in order to ensure optimal performance and a long lifespan. Please read and
follow the following instructions carefully. If the indoor cycles are not installed and configured
as described, the components may be subjected to excessive wear and tear and the bike may
become damaged. If you have any questions regarding installation,
please contact service@indoorcycling.com.
Please note: Lubricants are required for some maintenance procedures. Please only use an
acid- and solvent-free spray lubricant (e.g. Brunox) and white lithium grease.
1. Make sure the bike is level. If bike rocks on the floor, turn the levelling feet underneath the
front and/or rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated. Make sure that the levelling
feet are not screwed out further than 10 mm.
2. Verify emergency brake function to make sure that it is working properly.
3. Check that both crank arm Allen bolts, with which the cranks (on the right and left side of the
bottom bracket) are fastened, are secure (tightening torque 60 NM). These bolts are provided
with TufLok® at the factory to prevent them from becoming loose during use.
If the bolts become lose, we recommend applying medium-strength LOCTITE® 243 and then
reattaching the crank fixing bolts with a tightening torque of 60 NM.
4. Wipe down bike frame with a rag moistened with solvent-free spray lubricant.
5. Some parts of the bike may become loose during shipment. Check crank arms and all exposed
screws, bolts and nuts, and make sure that they are all secure and properly tightened.
