5.3 BOOT CENTER ADJUSTMENT<br />

Depending on the position selected the skiing behavior of<br />

the system is different (see below).<br />

+ 15<br />

0<br />

- 15<br />

1. Moderate Speed + 15mm<br />

The center of the body is<br />

shifted to the front. The ski<br />

reacts earlier and can be<br />

controlled easily. Good for<br />

skiers preferring moderate<br />

speeds.<br />

2. All-around 0 mm<br />

Neutral adjustment for optimal<br />

all-around performance.<br />

For every skier!<br />

3. Experts - 15mm<br />

By shifting the center of the<br />

body backwards, the ski is<br />

more stable. Better speed at<br />

the end of the run.<br />

For experts and terrain skiers.<br />

6. ADJUSTMENT OF THE RELEASE<br />

VALUES<br />

The release values at toe and heel should be determined<br />

by height and body weight (ISO/ASTM) method. Set the<br />

binding accordingly with the adjustment screws. We recommend<br />

the use of a calibrated testing device and that<br />

you keep a written record of whether the system passes<br />

or fails (requirement in the US).<br />

NOTE: Release/ Retention settings above a release<br />

moment of 100 NM at the toe and 400 NM at the heel are<br />

higher than the international standards recommend and<br />

are used solely at the skier’s own risk!<br />

7. FUNCTION CHECK<br />

Check the function of the heel. Make sure that the boot<br />

does not catch on the heel during entry and exit. Check<br />

the brake function by pressing down the brake pedal (1)<br />

by hand. The brake arms (2) must open to the braking<br />

position when the brake pedal is released (see pict 53<br />

and 54).<br />

pict 53<br />

Check the elasticity and retention of the toe by pushing<br />

the boot inward and outward. The binding must recenter<br />

the boot easily and quickly from a 15 mm lateral displacement.<br />

(RFL 7.5, RFL 4.5 - 10 mm).<br />

8. FINAL CHECK<br />

• Is the proper mounting point selected?<br />

• Functional brake test passed?<br />

• Are all screws fastened tightly?<br />

• Is the forward pressure properly adjusted?<br />

• Are the release values of toe and heel properly<br />

determined and set?<br />

• Is the Instruction for use booklet ready to be<br />

handed over to the customer?<br />
