2. سيٽ اپ ۽ تنصيب

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety. If you are unsure about any step, it is recommended to seek assistance from a qualified bicycle mechanic.

2.1 اوزار گھربل:

• Hex key set (typically 5mm for mounting bolt)
• ڪيبل ڪٽيندڙ
• ڪيبل ڪرمپس
• Torque wrench (recommended for precise tightening)

2.2 تنصيب جا مرحلا:

1. ڊيريلر کي لڳائڻ: Thread the derailleur onto the derailleur hanger on your bicycle frame. Ensure it is properly aligned and tighten the mounting bolt to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications (typically 8-10 Nm).
2. زنجير لڳائڻ: Install your 10-speed bicycle chain, ensuring it is the correct length for your drivetrain setup.
3. ڪيبل روٽنگ: Route the shifter cable from your shifter through the frame (if internal) and attach it to the cable fixing bolt on the derailleur. Pull the cable taut and secure it.
4. حد اسڪرو جي ترتيب:
   • هاءِ لِمٽ (ايڇ) اسڪرو: Adjust the H-screw so that the upper guide pulley aligns with the smallest cog when the chain is on it. This prevents the chain from shifting off the outside of the cassette.
   • گھٽ حد (ايل) اسڪرو: Adjust the L-screw so that the upper guide pulley aligns with the largest cog when the chain is on it. This prevents the chain from shifting into the spokes.
5. بي-ٽينشن ايڊجسٽمينٽ: With the chain on the largest cog and smallest chainring, adjust the B-tension screw to set the gap between the upper guide pulley and the largest cog. A gap of 5-6mm is generally recommended, but consult your bicycle's specific requirements.
6. Indexing Adjustment: Fine-tune the shifting by adjusting the barrel adjuster on the shifter or derailleur. Shift through all gears, ensuring smooth and precise transitions.

3. آپريٽنگ هدايتون

The microSHIFT R10 Rear Derailleur operates in conjunction with your 10-speed road shifter to move the chain across the rear cassette cogs, allowing you to select different gear ratios.

3.1 Shifting Gears:

• To shift to a larger cog (easier gear), actuate your shifter to release cable tension.
• To shift to a smaller cog (harder gear), actuate your shifter to pull cable tension.
• Always pedal forward while shifting to ensure smooth chain movement and prevent damage to the drivetrain components.
• Avoid shifting under heavy load, such as climbing a steep hill, as this can cause stress on the chain and derailleur.

4. سار سنڀال

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your microSHIFT R10 Rear Derailleur and ensure consistent performance.

4.1 صفائي:

• After each ride, especially in wet or dirty conditions, wipe down the derailleur body and jockey wheels with a clean rag.
• Use a degreaser specifically designed for bicycles to remove stubborn grime from the jockey wheels and cage. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry.

4.2 لوڻ:

• Apply a small amount of bicycle-specific lubricant to the pivot points of the derailleur body and the jockey wheel bearings periodically.
• Avoid over-lubrication, as this can attract dirt. Wipe off any excess lubricant.

4.3 چڪاس:

• Regularly check the derailleur hanger for alignment. A bent hanger is a common cause of poor shifting.
• Inspect the jockey wheels for wear. Worn teeth can lead to poor shifting and chain noise. Replace them if necessary.
• Check all bolts for tightness, including the mounting bolt and cable fixing bolt.
