6.2.2 Adjusting the front derailleur
x Shift the chain onto the smallest
chainring.
x Adjust the distance from the inner cage
using the L stop screw. The distance
should be 0.5–1 mm/0.02–0.4"
(see “Illustr.: Front derailleur”).
x Shift the chain onto the largest chainring.
x Adjust the distance from the outer cage
using the H stop screw. The distance
should be 0.5–1 mm/0.02–0.4".
6.2.3 Readjusting the shift cable tension
x If noises are produced after shifting gear while riding, correct the shift cable tension
using the cable tensioning screw on the shift lever (see “Illustr.: Cable tensioning
screw on the shift lever”).
x To do this, give the
cable tensioning screw a half turn.
x If the noises decrease, turn the
cable tensioning screw little by little
in the same direction until no more
noises are produced when riding.
x If the noises increase, turn the cable
tensioning screw little by little in the
opposite direction until no more
noises are produced when riding.
x If noises continue to be produced after
shifting gear while riding, have the gear shifting system adjusted by your dealer.
