Shimano SG-C6001-8 Dealer's Manual
TO ENSURE SAFETY
Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the manuals when installing the product.
Only use SHIMANO genuine parts. If a component or replacement part is incorrectly assembled or adjusted, it
can lead to component failure and cause the rider to lose control and crash.
Wear approved eye protection while performing maintenance tasks such as replacing components.
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
Because each bicycle may handle slightly differently depending on the model, be sure to learn the proper
braking technique (including brake lever pressure and bicycle control characteristics) and operation of your
bicycle. Improper use of your bicycle's brake system may result in a loss of control, which could lead to serious
injury due to a fall or collision.
Check that the wheels are fastened securely before riding the bicycle. You may fall or collide and be seriously
injured.
Brake
Do not apply the front brake too strongly. If you do so, the front wheel may lock and the bicycle may fall
forward, and serious injury may result.
Because the required braking distance will be longer during wet weather, reduce your speed and apply the
brakes early and gently. You may fall or collide and be seriously injured.
A wet road surface may cause tires to lose traction; therefore, to avoid this, reduce your speed and apply the
brakes early and gently. If the tires lose traction, you may fall and be seriously injured.
Disc brake rotor
Keep your fingers away from rotating disc brake rotors. Disc brake rotors are sharp enough to severely injure
your fingers if caught within the openings of a disc brake rotor.
Do not touch the calipers or disc brake rotor while riding or immediately after dismounting from the bicycle.
The calipers and disc brake rotor will become hot when the brakes are operated, so you may get burned if you
touch them.
Do not allow any oil or grease to get onto the disc brake rotor and brake pads. Riding the bicycle with oil or
grease on the disc brake rotor and brake pads may prevent the brakes from operating and result in serious
injury due to a fall or collision.
