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 />

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 />
