IMPORTANT NOTICE
IMPORTANT NOTICE
··This dealer's manual is intended primarily for use by professional bicycle mechanics. Users who are not professionally trained for bicycle assembly should not attempt to install the components themselves using the dealer's manuals. If any part of the information on the manual is unclear to you, do not proceed with the installation. Instead, contact your place of purchase or a distributor for assistance.
··Make sure to read all manuals included with the product.
··Do not disassemble or modify the product other than as stated in the information contained in this dealer's manual.
··All manuals and technical documents are accessible online at https://si.shimano.com.
··For consumers who do not have easy access to the internet, please contact a SHIMANO distributor or any of the SHIMANO offices to obtain a hardcopy of the User's Manual.
··Please observe the appropriate rules and regulations of the country, state or region in which you conduct your business as a dealer.
For safety, be sure to read this dealer's manual thoroughly before use, and follow it for correct use.

TO ENSURE SAFETY
WARNING
··Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the manuals when installing the product. Only use SHIMANO genuine parts. If a component or replacement part is incorrectly assembled or adjusted, it can lead to component failure and cause the rider to lose control and crash.
·· Wear approved eye protection while performing maintenance tasks such as replacing components.
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
··Do not reuse a QUICK-LINK that has been removed. If the QUICK-LINK is reused, there is a risk that it will loosen and become detached, which could cause the rider to lose control of the bicycle and fall.
··Intervals between maintenance depend on the use and riding circumstances. Clean the chain and QUICK-LINK regularly with an appropriate chain cleaner. Never use alkali based or acid based solvents such as rust cleaners. If any of these are used, the chain or QUICKLINK might break resulting in serious injury.
··If it is necessary to readjust the length of the chain due to a change in the sprocket configuration, etc., cut the chain in a place other than where it has been joined by a QUICK-LINK. The chain cutter will be damaged if the chain is cut at a place where it has been joined by a QUICK-LINK.
··Check the chain and QUICK-LINK for any damage (deformations or cracking), chain skipping, or other abnormalities such as unintended gear shifting. If any problems are found, consult your place of purchase or a distributor. There is a risk of the chain breaking or the QUICK-LINK detaching, which may cause you to fall off the bicycle.
··When replacing the chain with a new one, be sure to replace the QUICK-LINK with a new one as well. If the QUICK-LINK is not replaced, it may become damaged and you may fall off the bicycle.
··When installing the QUICK-LINK, make sure that the QUICK-LINK pins are inserted securely as far as they will go.

TO ENSURE SAFETY

For installation to the bicycle, and maintenance:
··Only use the tool and QUICK-LINK models specified in the table to connect the chain. If an unsuitable QUICK-LINK or tool is used to connect the chain, insufficient connecting force may cause chain separation or skipping.

··Read this manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for later reference.
NOTICE
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
··The gears should be periodically washed with a neutral detergent and then lubricated. In addition, cleaning the chain and QUICK-LINK with a neutral detergent and lubricating them can be an effective way of extending the life of the chain and QUICK-LINK.
··A SHIMANO original tool is required to remove the QUICK-LINK. Consult a place of purchase or a distributor.
··Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration from normal use and aging.
··For maximum performance we highly recommend SHIMANO lubricants and maintenance products.
