“Maintenance interval depends on the usage and riding

circumstances. Clean regularly the chain with an appropriate

chaincleaner. Never use alkali based or acid based solvents such

as rust cleaners. If those solvent be used chain might break and

cause serious injury.”

•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.

•If the chain is on the smallest or intermediate chainring, there is the danger of injury

from the tips of the teeth on the largest chainring.

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

illustration, the chain may contact the front

chainrings or front derailleur and generate

noise. If the noise is a problem, shift the chain

onto the next-larger rear sprocket or the one

after.

•Apply grease to the bottom bracket before

installing it.

•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.

General Safety Information

WARNING

•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.

•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.

•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.

•Always be sure to use the sprocket set bearing the same group marks. Never

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.

•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,

General Safety Information

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.

•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.

•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.

•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

•Adjust the RD-M530 reverse spring type rear derailleur from the low side.
