Step 7

Insert 5mm hex wrench into pulley top and rotate pulley to locked position. Holding the pulley in place, pull excess cable slack out. Still holding the pulley at lockout position, torque set screw to clamp cable with a 2mm hex wrench to 10 in-lbs. This ensures that lockout is in the correct position regardless of remote lever design. Cut off excess cable and crimp the end.

Step 11

Actuate lever from full lock to full open several times to verify pulley is releasing properly.

A).If pulley is sticking in lockout position the cable tension may be too high. Turn barrel adjuster counterclockwise to remove cable tension and check again.

B).If pulley/lever isn’t returning to full open, repeat remote pulley installation procedure.

WARNING: FOX products should be installed by a qualified bicycle service technician, in accordance with FOX installation specifications. If you have any doubts as to whether or not you can properly install the remote lever on your bicycle, defer to a professionally trained bicycle service technician. Improperly installed products can fail, causing the rider to lose control, potentially causing SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

WARNING:  Make sure that the remote lever does not interfere with normal brake and shift lever operation. Failure to do so can result in loss of control, potentially causing SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

WARNING: Make sure to leave enough cable housing length to accomodate normal steering operation. Failure to do so can result in loss of control, potentially causing SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
