ADJUSTMENT OF THE FRONT
DERAILLEUR
1. Mount the front derailleur on the seat tube (without
chain) and turn it in a temporary position,
2. Check that the chain guide does not protrude beyond
the largest chain wheel by more than 2 mm. The
chain guide must not touch the chain wheels,
3. The chain guide must run parallel to the chain
wheels. Check above,
4. Tighten the frame bolt and change to the smallest
gear (smallest chain wheel, larger rear sprocket). In
this position, the chain must almost run against the
chain guide inner blade,
5. Tighten the front derailleur control cable and secure
with the pinch bolt,
6. Change to the highest gear (largest chain wheel,
smallest sprocket). In this position the chain must
almost run against the chain guide outer plate of the
right pedal crank,
7. Adjust both highest positions of the front derailleur
with the adjusting screws,
8. Change the chain to the smallest and the largest
gear. In both gears, the front derailleur must
smoothly and immediately change the chain from
the smallest to the largest chain wheel and vice
versa.

Note
this procedure applies for both two and three-ringed
pedal cranks with round chain wheel.
Caution!
To avoid excessive wear and damage of the chain,
sprockets and chain wheels, we advise against the fol-
lowing combinations (see illustrations):
– Largest chain wheel – largest sprocket
– Smallest chain wheel – smallest sprocket
CHAIN MAINTENANCE
Regularly check that your chain is clean and well-lubri-
cated. Have your dealer check the chain for wear.
Should you nevertheless want to check it yourself, you
need to purchase the Rohloff Chain Caliber 2 from your
Scott Dealer. This caliber will help you to work out whe-
ther your chain is too slack of not.
