Fitting Instructions - Brompton P Line Bedienungsanleitung

LUGGAGE
Brompton has a selection of luggage accessories that you may fit to your Brompton. They have a load
capacity of up to 10kg on the front and 10kg on the rear rack. Please pay attention to the instructions
that come with all luggage before use. Using incorrect luggage may interfere with steering and could be
dangerous.
Note: All Brompton front luggage is suitable for use on M, H and P Type Bromptons, but the T Bag, C Bag
and Folding Basket are not suitable for use on S Type Bromptons.
FRONT CARRIER BLOCK
• Check that you have all the parts shown in the diagram (fig. 13)
• If fitting for the first time, remove the two set screws in the brazed-on mounting block M; older bikes use
a black nylon screw with slot, newer bikes a steel screw with 2.5mm hex drive
• It is vital that you do not omit either of the serrated washers W when fitting the retaining plate RP and
that the correct torque is used on the screws SHS
• The blue patch on the screw is there to lock the screws in place; do not tamper with, remove or expose
this patch to moisture as the locking action will be greatly reduced
• The screws should not be re-fitted after the initial instillation; the blue patch will not function correctly
• The screws should be replaced with Brompton part QFCB-BOLTS or two M5x16 socket head cap
screw, Class 12.9 DIN 912 with medium strength threadlock applied to the threads before installation

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

You need a 4mm Allen key and a Posidrive screw-driver. Assemble the retaining plate RP and one of the
M5 socket head screws SHS, together with its star-washer W into the body of the carrier block FCB.
Address this to the head tube on the bicycle the correct way up as shown.
• Insert the first screw by two to three turns, do not tighten fully
• Insert and do up the second screw with serrated washer W
• Finally tighten both screws firmly to a Torque of 4.5Nm
• Feed the bottom end of the latch lever LL through the hole in the base of the carrier block FCB and then,
holding the bottom of the latch lever, position the top of the latch lever inside the carrier block
• Feed the self tapping screw ST through the hole in the latch lever and secure firmly into the carrier block
• The screw ST must be fully screwed home so the latch is properly locked in place, if not it will be
ineffective and luggage may fall off, which is dangerous
