3 ආරක්ෂිත තොරතුරු
Always prioritize safety during installation and use. Improper installation or maintenance can lead to serious injury or damage to the bicycle. It is recommended that installation and adjustments be performed by a qualified bicycle mechanic.
- Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection, when working on your bicycle.
- Ensure all fasteners are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque values. Overtightening or undertightening can cause component failure.
- Regularly inspect the derailleur and associated components for wear, damage, or loose connections. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

4. පිහිටුවීම සහ ස්ථාපනය
The FD-U6010-L front derailleur is designed for low clamp mounting and features a top-swing mechanism. It includes adapters for various seat tube diameters.
4.1. Prepare the Frame
Clean the seat tube area where the derailleur clamp will be positioned. Ensure there are no burrs or obstructions. Determine the correct seat tube diameter (28.6mm, 31.8mm, or 34.9mm) and select the appropriate adapter if necessary.
4.2. Mount the Derailleur

- Position the derailleur clamp on the seat tube. The outer cage plate should be parallel to the largest chainring.
- Adjust the height of the derailleur so that the bottom of the outer cage plate is 1-3mm above the teeth of the largest chainring.
- cl එක තද කරන්නamp bolt to the specified torque (refer to SHIMANO technical documentation for exact values).
4.3. කේබලය සම්බන්ධ කරන්න
The FD-U6010-L features a dual cable pull design, allowing for versatile cable routing (top or bottom pull). Route the shift cable through the appropriate guide and secure it to the derailleur's cable fixing bolt. Ensure the cable is taut but not overly tight before final adjustment.
4.4. Adjust Limit Screws
There are two limit screws: High (H) and Low (L). These screws prevent the derailleur from shifting the chain off the chainrings.
- Low Limit (L): Shift the chain to the smallest chainring and the largest rear cog. Adjust the L-screw so that the inner cage plate is as close as possible to the chain without rubbing.
- High Limit (H): Shift the chain to the largest chainring and the smallest rear cog. Adjust the H-screw so that the outer cage plate is as close as possible to the chain without rubbing.
4.5. Adjust Cable Tension
Fine-tune the cable tension using the barrel adjuster on the shifter or the derailleur (if present). Shift through all gears to ensure smooth and precise operation without hesitation or chain rub.
5. Operating the Front Derailleur
The SHIMANO CUES FD-U6010-L Front Derailleur is designed for intuitive and reliable shifting within a 10/11-speed LINKGLIDE double chainring system. Use your left shifter to control the front derailleur.
- To shift to a larger chainring (harder gear), press the main lever of your left shifter.
- To shift to a smaller chainring (easier gear), press the release lever of your left shifter.
- Always shift smoothly and avoid excessive force. Anticipate shifts and execute them before encountering steep inclines or obstacles.
- Avoid cross-chaining (e.g., largest front chainring with largest rear cog, or smallest front chainring with smallest rear cog) as this can increase wear and reduce shifting performance.
6. නඩත්තු කිරීම
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your front derailleur.
6.1 පිරිසිදු කිරීම
Periodically clean the derailleur cage, pivot points, and cable routing areas to remove dirt, mud, and grime. Use a mild degreaser and a brush, then rinse with water and dry thoroughly.
6.2. ලිහිසි කිරීම
Apply a small amount of bicycle-specific lubricant to the pivot points of the derailleur. Avoid over-lubricating, which can attract dirt. Lubricate the shift cable where it enters the housing and at the cable fixing point on the derailleur.
6.3. Inspections and Adjustments
- Check cable tension regularly. If shifting becomes sluggish or imprecise, adjust the barrel adjuster.
- Verify that the limit screws are still correctly set and prevent the chain from over-shifting.
- Inspect the derailleur cage for any bends or damage. A bent cage can cause chain rub and poor shifting.
- Ensure all mounting bolts are secure and tightened to the correct torque.
