6. Forward pressure control<br />
Place the boot in the binding and close it. The indicating<br />
pointer should rest within the scribed area<br />
(8). If not lift the tooth lock with a screwdriver, adjust<br />
the forward pressure and lock the tooth lock<br />
again. The adjustment range is +- 4 mm, the last<br />
position to the front and the rear is reached if the<br />
indicating pointer (1) or (2) is aligned with the<br />
rearend of the steel base plate (3) (see pict 42).<br />
Note: Always remove the boot before opening<br />
the toothed lock.<br />
Check the forward pressure again.<br />
7. Adjustment of the release Values<br />
The adjustment value of toe and heel should be<br />
determined by height and body weight (ISO/ASTM)<br />
method. Set the bindings accordingly to the individual<br />
parameters of the skier. We recommend<br />
the use of a calibrated testing device, and that<br />
you keep a written record of whether the system<br />
passes or fails (this is a 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<br />
heel are higher than the international standards<br />
recommend and are used solely at the skiers<br />
own risk!<br />
8. Function Check<br />
Check the function of the heel. Make sure that<br />
the boot does not catch on the heel during entry<br />
and exit.<br />

CONTENTS<br />
Check the brake function by pressing down the<br />
brake treadle (1) by hand. The brake arms (2)<br />
must open to the braking position when the brake<br />
treadle is released (see pict 44).<br />
➊<br />
Check the elasticity and retention of the toe by<br />
pushing the boot inward and outward. The binding<br />
must recenter the boot easily and quickly from a<br />
15 mm lateral displacement.<br />
9. Final Check<br />
• Is the proper mounting point selected?<br />
MOUNTING / 31<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 />
