Best setting

The best setting is when the shifting lever is operated just

enough to take up the play and the chain touches the 3rd

sprocket and makes noise.

* Return the lever to its original position (the position where

the lever is at the 2nd sprocket setting and it has been

released) and then turn the crank arm clockwise. If the chain

is touching the 3rd sprocket and making noise, turn the outer casing

adjustment barrel clockwise slightly to tighten it until the noise stops and

the chain runs smoothly.

Operate lever to change gears, and check that no noise occurs in any of

the gear positions.

For the best SIS performance, periodically lubricate all power-transmission

parts.
