Chain Maintenance; Chain Replacement - CAMPAGNOLO C10 HD-L Bedienungsanleitung

• Close the chain using the specific Campagnolo
as indicated in Figure 19 and two small pins (B).
• Close only one of the two links performing the operations indicated in Section 1, Figures 9,
10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15.
• Now close the other link.
Note
The slight protrusion (X) of the small pin (E) from the link (Fig. 16 - page 10) is entirely normal
and does not obstruct normal chain movement.
NEVER try to eliminate this protrusion!
• Make sure that chain closure does not present any "harsh points" or links that do not bend freely
(Fig. 17 - page 10). Free the joints as required with delicate lateral bending of the links.

3. CHAIN MAINTENANCE

• The life of the chain depends on conditions of use and on the frequency and quality of mainte-
nance. To keep the chain in good condition, cleaning and lubrication must therefore be repeated
frequently, especially if it is subjected to heavy-duty use (i.e. after washing your bicycle, after
every ride in wet, dusty or muddy conditions etc.).
• Do not remove the chain for cleaning and lubrication.
• Before lubricating, thoroughly clean the drive system (chain, sprocket set, chainrings and derail-
leur pulleys) with a brush or cloth saturated with an appropriate degreaser or detergent.
• Lubricate the chain with the Campagnolo
rations listed in the instructions sheet supplied with the canister.

4. CHAIN REPLACEMENT

A chain typically lasts between 2,000 miles and 5,000 miles, depending on the conditions of use
and on the frequency and quality of maintenance operations. Use a high precision caliper gauge
to measure, in different points of the chain, the length as indicated in fig. 20. If even one of the
measurement is longer than 132.60 mm the chain must immediately be replaced.
