3. Securing the Shock Module
To secure the shock module fasten the lower pin on the spring
(Figure 4) applying 10Nm with a torque wrench and tighten the 3 hex
screws (Figure 8). Start with the top hex screw and work down by
applying 3Nm with a torque wrench. Perform this sequence twice,
since the upper hex screw will loosen in the first run. Place the bellow
in the groove on the threaded tube and then tighten the collar over the
bellow. (Figure 7)
WARNING: Over tightening the hex screws can strip threads and
cause shock module to bind.
WARNING: Make sure the collar covers the edge of the bellow all
around.
4. Applying a Permanent Shock Module Setting
To permanently fix the shock module, remove the hex screws one by
one; apply Loctite 243. When finished, re-apply torque of 3Nm on all
hex screws. Perform this sequence twice, since the upper hex screw
will loosen in the first run. Failing to apply Loctite 243 to the hex
screws may result in the shock coming loose.
Also remove the pin and apply Loctite 243 on threads and tighten with
10Nm torque.

DYNAMIC ALIGNMENT

Heel Wedges
Heel wedges influence the heel to toe function. Start altering the heel
resistance to improve foot response by adding a heel wedge. The small,
medium and large wedges can be interchanged to customize the
stiffness and achieve the desired functional characteristics. The wedges
can be trimmed using sharp scissors to customize stiffness.
Temporary Wedge Placement (Figure 10)
• Place the wedge in the angle of heel and foot module.
• Secure in position with tape wrapped around the foot module.
Permanent Wedge Placement
• Roughen the upper and lower surface of the heel with abrasive paper.
• Apply adhesive on the lower side of the wedge only.
• Locate in the foot/heel junction and position before adhesive sets.
• For split toe feet install the heel wedge then remove a thin slice in the
middle by cutting with a sharp knife through the split in the carbon
foot module. (Figure 10)
Instant adhesive is necessary to bond the urethane heel wedge. The
adhesive cures in 15-20 seconds. For removal the adhesive may be
softened by soaking in acetone or cyanoacrylate adhesive remover.
Heel Divider
The heel divider should be placed in the last third of the split heel part. To
secure its position a drop of instant adhesive can be used on one side.
