Oxford OF698 Hot Grips Light Montageanleitung Und Bedienungsanleitung Seite 4

E: Trial fi t the Oxford HotGrips
1. Always "dry fi t" the grip to the bar fi rst, to ensure that the grip is a snug fi t before using the adhesive.
2. The HotGrips have a unique internal tube that can expand to fi t over the handlebar.
3. This makes them easier to fi t over handlebars that have inconsistent diameter bars due to
manufacturing tolerances.
4. If the grips are too tight to slide on with only gentle effort, do not force them on
or damage may occur. Check the dimensions of the handlebars again and adjust as necessary.
5. When sliding the grips onto the handlebars it is possible to twist them into place until they reach the
correct fi nished position.
F: Positioning on handlebars:
1. Position the grips so that the wires do not foul against the brake / clutch levers.
The throttle grip should rotate freely without obstruction and without stretching or pinching the wires.
The ideal fi tment position of the grips can vary from bike to bike. We fi nd that an
ideal position can be one whereby the wires of the grips sit just below the brake and throttle levers.
This position allows the Hotgrip wiring to be neatly attached to the clutch/brake cables and usually
prevents the wires from being strained.
Throttle open
However some people prefer the wire of the grips to sit a safe clearance above the brake and clutch levers
so that the wire exits forward and relatively horizontal. When the throttle is opened the wire will then raise
upwards and away from the brake lever.
2. Before removing the grips for the fi nal fi tting procedure, it is important to connect the electrical wiring
harness to the battery and the grips. With the motorcycle engine running the grips can be switched on
to make sure that the grips operate as expected. Failure to do so may invalidate the warranty.
G: Final fi tting of grips
1. Use the Super glue provided. It has been proven for this application and we cannot guarantee the
suitability of an alternative.
2. Warning: The Superglue will bond skin and eyes in seconds. Keep out of reach of children.
• IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO FIT THE GRIP IMMEDIATELY AND WITHOUT DELAY BECAUSE THE
SUPERGLUE PROVIDED WILL BOND THE HOTGRIPS TO THE BARS VERY QUICKLY. THIS IS
PARTICULARLY RELEVANT WITH THE THROTTLE SLEEVE AND HOTGRIPS
• Don't let the glue drip onto paintwork. Shield paintwork appropriately.
