6. Mounting
6.1 MOUNTING OF MAGNET AND SENSOR
Important! Watch Out when mounting!
The distance between Sensor and magnet should be 1 to 3 mm.
STEP 1 Loosely mount Sensor on the front fork using the zip ties, so that you can still make final adjustments.
Mounting on right or left side of the fork is possible.
STEP 2 Loosely mount the magnet at the spoke, so that you still can do final adjustments.
The magnet must point towards the sensor-marking on the Sensor.
STEP 3 Make final adjustments of the magnet towards the Sensor-marking, ensure the distance between the magnet and the
sensor marking is 1 to 3 mm. To get that distance also adjust the Sensor towards the magnet.
STEP 4 To finally fix the Sensor. Pull zip-ties tight. Cut off remaining zip-tie-parts.
STEP 5 To finally fix the magnet. Press the magnet-shell until the magnet is securely fixed at the spoke.
STEP 6 Keep the wire neat by winding it around the fork and along the brake-cable upwards to the handlebar.
CHECK: During mounting move the handlebar and check the suspension-travel (in case of a suspension fork) to make sure
the wire is not overstretched and may be ripped off while riding.
6.2 MOUNTING OF BRACKET
STEP 1 Decide if you want to mount the bracket on handlebar or on stem.
STEP 2 Depending on your decision you may need to turn the foot of the bracket by 90 °.
Remove the 2 screws, turn the foot of the bracket to adjust for either handlebar or stem-mounting.
STEP 3 Fix the foot of the bracket with the 2 screws. Do not overstress the screws.
STEP 4 Fix the bracket to either the handlebar or the stem by using 2 zip-ties.
Cut off the remaining zip-tie-parts.
6.3 HEAD UNIT INSTALLATION
Place the computer into the bracket ( 10-o’clock-position) and turn clockwise until you feel a click and have reached 12 o’clock position.
Watch Out: Make sure the computer is properly placed into the bracket and is turned clockwise until you feel the “Click”.
To remove the computer off the bracket, twist the head counter-clockwise and then lift it out of the bracket.
7. Test of Function
After installation, please check function of your VDO A8.
Lift the front wheel of your bike. Turn the front wheel. Within 2 to 4 seconds a speed reading should be in display of your VDO A8.
Otherwise re-check the magnet position and the distance of the magnet towards the Sensor-marking. Re-adjust the position and distance
and check again. We wish you many enjoyable rides and trips on your bike with your VDO A8 cycle computer.
In case of any technical problems contact your dealer.
