Rohloff

Adjustthepositionoftheupperjockeywheel. Todothis,loosenthe

mountingboltandswingthechaintensionerinthearroweddirectionuntil

thereisapprox.1mmspacebetweenthejockeywheelandthesprocket.

Retightenthemountingbolt(5mmallenkey,tighteningtorque

8Nm/70in.lbs.).

Ondropoutsthinnerthan7mm,theuseofthe13toothsprocket(chainline

58mm)willrequiretheuseofthelongermountingbolt. Thisisavailable

separately(Art.#8255).

Placeallthree0.2mmorone

0,5mmdistancingwashers

betweentheoutersideoftheswing

armandthemountingbolt. This

willguaranteethattheswingarm

ispreventedfrommoving.Mount

the DHchaintensioner

withthecorrectamountof

distancingwashers,sothatthe

jockeywheelssitdirectly

underneaththesprocketforthe

correctchainline.

5.2.2 DHchaintensioner (accessoryfor downhill)Rohloff (Art.#8245)

The DHchaintensioneris

speciallydesignedfordownhilluse.

Ithasatensioncapacityof10

chainlinks.Incontrasttothe

regular chaintensioner,it

hasashorterswingarmthatis

restrictedfrommoving. This

featureensuresthattheupper

jockeywheelrunsveryclosetothe

sprocket. Thisforcedguide

guaranteesapositiverunofthe

chainontothesprocketevenunder

extremeridingconditions. To

removethewheel,thechain

tensionermountingboltmustbe

loosened.

5.3.2Mountingwithoutachaintensioner

Tomountanewchain,thedistancebetweenthebottombracketandtheaxlemustbesettotheminimum.

Placethechainoverthechainringandthesprocket.Removetherequiredamountofchainlinks,sothatthechain

isattheminimumpossiblelength.Jointhechaintogetherfollowingthemanufacturersinstructions.

Tensionthechainbymovingthewheel/bottombracketuntilthechainnolongersags. Thistensionshouldbe

Regularlycheckedandifneeded,appropriatelyadjusted.

Onhardtailframesthechainlength

shouldbeadjusted,sothatthe

chaintensionercageliesbetween

30°andtheverticalposition.

Onrearsuspensionframes,check

thatthechaintensionerisnotover-

tensionedwhenthereartriangle

movesthefullamountoftravel.

Theamountofchainlinksneeded

varies,dependingontheposition

ofthepivotpointoftherear

triangle. Tocheck:swingtherear

triangletoitsendposition(eg

removetherearshockspring).If

thelowerjockeywheelishigher

thantheupperjockeywheel,orif

thechaintensionercageisagainst

thechainstay,thenthechainmust

belengthened.

5.3 Thechain

5.3.1Mountingwithachaintensioner

Iftheframedoesnothave OEMdropouts,horizontaldropoutsoranexcentricbottombracketenabling

thechaintobetensioned,thenachaintensionermustbemounted.

Aftermountingthechaintensioner(chapter5.2)thechainlinewillbecorrect.Nowthechainhastobemounted

atthecorrectlength.

Rohloff

Fitthenewchainoverthe

chainringandsprocketandthread

itthroughthechaintensioner.

The chaintensionercanbe

detensionedsimplybyreleasing

thespringfromtheconcave

washer Thiseasesthemounting

ofthechain.
