Front Derailleur - Dynacraft SINGLE SPEED Owner's Manual

FRONT DERAILLEUR

Shift both shifter to the smallest number indicated and place the
chain on the corresponding cog and chainwheel. Disconnect
the front derailleur cable from the cable anchor bolt. Check the
position of the front derailleur; it should be parallel with the outer
chainwheel and clear the largest chainwheel by 3 - 5 mm when fully
engaged. With the chain on the smallest chainwheel in front and
the largest cog in the back, adjust the Low limit screw so the chain
is centered in the front derailleur cage. Reconnect the cable, pull
any slack out, and tighten the anchor bolt securely. Shift the front
3-5 mm
shifter to the largest chainwheel. If the chain does not go onto the
largest chainwheel, turn the High limit screw in 1/4 turn increments
clockwise until the chain no longer falls off. Some shifters may have
an adjusting barrel to fine tune the adjusting of the chain location.
Turn the adjusting barrel clockwise will move the derailleur inboard
- towards the frame, while turning it clockwise will direct the chain
outboard - away from the frame.
WARNING
Do not ride a bicycle that is not shifting properly. Overlooking proper
adjustments may cause irreparable damage to the bicycle and/or
bodily injury. Never move the shifter while pedaling backward, nor
pedal backwards after having moved the shifter. This could jam the
chain and cause serious damage to the bicycle and/or rider.
