you cannot view the LED battery indicator properly, you can loosen the throttle clamp and move the throttle into a
preferred position. As stated above, you may have to loosen the brake assemble to move the throttle to your
desired position. Please see section e "Brake lever height adjustments" following this section to loosen and adjust
the brake lever assembly and maintain correct brake lever height adjustments. To loosen and adjust the throttle,
locate the 3mm hex bolt behind the LED battery indicator on the throttle. Use your G Plus 3mm hex key and insert it
into the hex bolt and rotate a minimum of 3 times counter clockwise. The throttle will now be loose enough to move.
Once the desired position is found, confirm the handlebar is fully inserted into the throttle assembly and then tighten
the hex bolt clockwise until the throttle clamp is tight and the throttle assembly cannot be moved. Throttle clamp
bolt should be tightened to 25 lb*in. (SEE PHOTO BELOW)
Your G Plus Mariner includes a thumb lever bell for you to use to warn other people around you when approaching.
The thumb lever bell can be moved to a more comfortable position if the factory setting is unsatisfactory (you will
need to use the Philips screw driver included with your G Plus multi-piece tool kit). On the underside of the bell
handlebar clamp there is a small Philips screw. Using the G Plus Philips screw driver, turn the screw counter
clockwise to loosen the clamp enough allowing the bell to me moved. Move the bell to the desired position and
using your G Plus Philips screw driver, tighten the clamp screw by turning clockwise. (SEE PHOTO BELOW)
e. Brake lever adjustments
The level at which brake lever assemblies are preferred vary from rider to rider. Some riders also have smaller
hands than other riders and need the brake levers' reach to be closer to the handlebar. The G Plus Mariner
includes Promax top of the line XL-86 brake lever assemblies which can be rotated to a desired height and also the
levers' reach can be adjusted inwards.
Promax XL-86 brake lever assemblies have the clamp bolt accessible from the top of the bracket (you will need to
use the 4mm hex key included with your G Plus multi-piece tool kit). Using the 4mm hex key, loosen the brake lever
assembly by turning the hex bolt counter clock wise 3 full turns. The lever assembly will now be loose and you can
rotate it up or down to establish the preferred position to apply the brakes while riding. The brake lever assembly on
the right side of the handlebar may require the throttle clamp to be loosened to allow the brake lever assembly to
rotate. The brake lever assembly and throttle mount together and at a certain point of rotation, one will not rotate
further without the other requiring to be rotated. A compromise may be required when attempting to align the brake
levers and establishing the preferred throttle position. The optimum position to set your brake levers at depends on
your riding position but it should be the extension of your arm. Your brake lever should be located at the point
where your fingers extend straight out from your arms. Upon finding preferred brake lever height, tighten hex bolt
using 4mm key. Brake lever clamp bolts should be tightened to 80 lb*in. (SEE PHOTO BELOW)
Reach adjustment is accomplished by rotating the reach adjusting bolt on the inside of the brake lever assembly
(you will need to use the 2mm hex key included with your G Plus multi-piece tool kit). Using the 2mm hex key, turn
the reach bolt clockwise by a ½ turn bringing in the lever, test the brake lever for reach. If the lever is still too far to
reach, turn the reach bolt clockwise by another ½ turn. Continue to do this until you can reach the lever safely and
comfortably. Repeat these steps on the opposite side. It is highly recommended that the reach bolt is never rotated
more than a few times. By bringing the brake lever closer to the handlebar you are limiting the amount of travel for
the brake cable which could cause the lever to hit the handlebar before applying full brake pressure. By adjusting
the brake lever reach, you must also now adjust the brake cable adjustment. The brake cable may be too tight and
applying the brakes. Brake levers with adjusted reach also require shorter intervals between adjusting brake cables
for brake pad wear. (SEE PHOTO BELOW)
