General Safety Information
WARNING

• Use the reinforced connecting pin only for connecting the narrow type of chain.
• There are two different types of reinforced connecting pins available. Be sure to check
the table below before selecting which pin to use. If connecting pins other than
reinforced connecting pins are used, or if a reinforced connecting pin or tool which is
not suitable for the type of chain is used, sufficient connection force may not be
obtained, which could cause the chain to break or fall off.

• If it is necessary to adjust the length of the chain due
to a change in the number of sprocket teeth, make
the cut at some other place than the place where the
chain has been joined using a reinforced connecting
pin or an end pin. The chain will be damaged if it is

cut at a place where it has been joined with a
reinforced connecting pin or an end pin.
• Be careful not to let the cuffs of your clothes get caught in the chain while riding,
otherwise you may fall off the bicycle.
• Check that the tension of the chain is correct and that the chain is not damaged. If the
tension is too weak or the chain is damaged, the chain should be replaced. If this is
not done, the chain may break and cause serious injury.
• It is important to periodically check the tightening torques for the crank arms and
pedals. After riding approximately 100 km (60 miles), re-check the tightening torques. If
the tightening torques are too weak, the crank arms or pedals may come off and the
bicycle may fall over, and serious injury may occur as a result.
• Check that there are no cracks in the crank arms before riding the bicycle. If there are
any cracks, the crank arm may break and you may fall off the bicycle.
• Obtain and read the service instructions carefully prior to installing the parts.
Loose, worn or damaged parts may cause the bicycle to fall over and serious injury
may occur as a result. We strongly recommend only using genuine Shimano
replacement parts.
• Obtain and read the service instructions carefully prior to installing the parts. If
adjustments are not carried out correctly, the chain may come off and this may cause
you to fall off the bicycle which could result in serious injury.
• Read these Technical Service Instructions carefully, and keep them in a safe place for
later reference.
Reinforced Connecting Pin

Use the special tools (TL-UN74-S and TL-UN66) to install the bottom
bracket (1) and the front derailleur so that they face as shown in the
illustration. If the bottom bracket shell width is 68 mm, insert a spacer
(2.5 mm) as shown in the illustration when installing the front derailleur.
Install the adapter (2), and then use an 8 mm Allen key to install the
front chainwheel.

Note
• In addition, if pedaling performance does not feel normal, check this once more.
• Before riding the bicycle, check that there is no play or looseness in the connection.
Also, be sure to retighten the crank arms and pedals at periodic intervals.
• When installing the pedals, apply a small amount of grease to the threads to prevent
the pedals from sticking. Use a torque wrench to securely tighten the pedals.
Tightening torque: 35 - 55 N·m {305 - 479 in. lbs.}. The right-hand crank arm has a
right-hand thread, and the left-hand crank arm has a left-hand thread.
• Do not wash the bottom bracket with high-pressure jets of water.
• If you feel any looseness in the bottom bracket axle, the bottom bracket should be
replaced.
• If gear shifting operations do not feel smooth, wash the derailleur and lubricate all
moving parts.
• If the amount of looseness in the links is so great that adjustment is not possible, you
should replace the derailleur.
• You should periodically wash the chainrings in a neutral detergent and then lubricate
them again. In addition, cleaning the chain with neutral detergent and lubricating it can
be a effective way of extending the useful life of the chainrings and the chain.
• The cuffs of your clothing may get dirty from the chain while riding.
• If the chain keeps coming off the chainrings during use, replace the chainrings and the
chain.
• When the chain is in the position shown in the

• Apply grease to the bottom bracket before
installing it.
Outer casing holders
• For smooth operation, use the specified outer casing and the
bottom bracket cable guide.
• This front derailleur is for triple front chainwheel use only. It
cannot be used with the double front chainwheel, as the shifting
points do not match.
• When installing the top route type, choose a frame that has three
outer casing holders as shown in the illustration at right.
• Use an outer casing which still has some length to spare even
when the handlebars are turned all the way to both sides. Furthermore, check that the
shifting lever does not touch the bicycle frame when the handlebars are turned all the
way.
• Grease the inner cable and the inside of the outer casing before use to ensure that
they slide properly.
• Operation of the levers related to gear shifting should be made only when the front
chainwheel is turning.
• Parts are not guaranteed against natural wear or deterioration resulting from normal
use.
• For maximum performance we highly recommend Shimano lubricants and
maintenance products
• For any questions regarding methods of installation, adjustment, maintenance or
operation, please contact a professional bicycle dealer.

Use a handlebar grip with a maximum outer diameter of 32 mm.

• Obtain and read the service instructions carefully prior to installing the parts. Loose, worn, or
damaged parts may cause injury to the rider.
We strongly recommend only using genuine Shimano replacement parts.
• Read these Technical Service Instructions carefully, and keep them in a safe place for later reference.

Note

• If gear shifting operations do not feel smooth, wash the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts.
• If the amount of looseness in the links is so great that adjustment is not possible, you should replace
the derailleur.
• You should periodically clean the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts (mechanism and pulleys).
• If gear shifting adjustment cannot be carried out, check the degree of parallelism at the rear end of
the bicycle. Also check if the cable is lubricated and if the outer casing is too long or too short.
• If you hear abnormal noise as a result of looseness in a pulley, you should replace the pulley.
• If the wheel becomes stiff and difficult to turn, you should lubricate it with grease.
• Do not apply any oil to the inside of the hub, otherwise the grease will come out.
• You should periodically wash the sprockets in a neutral detergent and then lubricate them again. In
addition, cleaning the chain with neutral detergent and lubricating it can be a effective way of
extending the useful life of the sprockets and the chain.
• If the chain keeps coming off the sprockets during use, replace the sprockets and the chain.

sprocket and the largest chainring)

WARNING
• Check that the wheels are fastened securely before riding the bicycle. If the wheels are loose in any
way, they may come off the bicycle and serious injury may result.
• Use neutral detergent to clean the chain. Do not use alkali-based or acid based detergent such as
rust cleaners as it may result in damage and/or failure of the chain.
• Use the reinforced connecting pin only for connecting the narrow type of chain.
• There are two different types of reinforced connecting pins available. Be sure to check the table below
before selecting which pin to use. If connecting pins other than reinforced connecting pins are used,
or if a reinforced connecting pin or tool which is not suitable for the type of chain is used, sufficient
connection force may not be obtained, which could cause the chain to break or fall off.

• Adjust the RD-M530 reverse spring type rear derailleur from the low side.
• If gear shifting operations do not feel smooth, wash the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts.
• If the amount of looseness in the links is so great that adjustment is not possible, you should replace
the derailleur.
• You should periodically clean the derailleur and lubricate all moving parts (mechanism and pulleys).
• If gear shifting adjustment cannot be carried out, check the degree of parallelism at the rear end of
the bicycle. Also check if the cable is lubricated and if the outer casing is too long or too short.
• If you hear abnormal noise as a result of looseness in a pulley, you should replace the pulley.
• If the wheel becomes stiff and difficult to turn, you should lubricate it with grease.
• Do not apply any oil to the inside of the hub, otherwise the grease will come out.
• You should periodically wash the sprockets in a neutral detergent and then lubricate them again. In
addition, cleaning the chain with neutral detergent and lubricating it can be a effective way of
extending the useful life of the sprockets and the chain.
• If the chain keeps coming off the sprockets during use, replace the sprockets and the chain.
• Always be sure to use the sprocket set bearing the same group marks. Never
Group marks
use in combination with a sprocket bearing a different group mark.
• Use a frame with internal cable routing is strongly discouraged as it has
tendencies to impair the SIS shifting function due to its high cable resistance.
• Use an outer casing which still has some length to spare even when the
handlebars are turned all the way to both sides. Furthermore, check that the
shifting lever does not touch the bicycle frame when the handlebars are turned
all the way.
• Grease the inner cable and the inside of the outer casing before use to ensure
that they slide properly.
• For smooth operation, use the specified outer casing and the bottom bracket cable guide.
• Operation of the levers related to gear shifting should be made only when the front chainwheel is
turning.
• Parts are not guaranteed against natural wear or deterioration resulting from normal use.
• For maximum performance we highly recommend Shimano lubricants and maintenance products.
• For any questions regarding methods of installation, adjustment, maintenance or operation, please
contact a professional bicycle dealer.
