battery-case. Attention The heatshield must be installed if: the series-heatshield of the rear collector is no longer present! If you don't mount the heatshield you run a great risk of fire and explosion! 4. Mounting the Schwabenmax Tank Attention: Maximum torque of all screws at the tank as the Partslist! |

| 5./ 3. The filler cap must ready built-inly be easy to put together. |
Additional mounting-, warning- and danger-hints 1. The rear struts must, when fully extended, be at least the length of the series struts (at aftermarket struts). 2. The rear swingarm cannot be higher than the series swingarm in the area below the tank. Aftermarket swingarms of Class, Degget, Fischers as well as the aluminum swingarm of Krueger & Junginger and Otec are all matching. With others, like for example CNC-milled Fischer-swingarms or single-sided swingarms, the distance must be checked. 3. In the rear of the series collectors you find a heatshield. This may not be removed! Aftermarket exhaust systems, for example 4-in-1 or 4-in2 BSMS and others don't have a heatshield. In this case we deliver the relevant part for a small extra charge. See price list. 4. The following rear-wheel rim/tire-combinations may be used: Series, 5,0 x 17-170/60, 5,5 x 17-180/55 and 190/50, 6,0 x 1, however, with 6,0J-rims the swingarm must be set to the most left (offset). Theoretically, rims/tires 5 XS 18J 170/60 will also fit. These have the same dimensions as the series wheels. This must be clarified at the time of the order. 5. As mentioned before the tank will fit without any alterations of the framework, however the rear fender / mudguard must be shortened for aprox. 3 cm at your own costs. You won't need the series plastic-covers at the rear-wheel. With other seats, for example tail pieces by Big Bike or similar, the place-circumstances must be clarified at the time of the ordered. The tank filler is on series-level. 6. The series tank-cap, holding-rubber, gas-filters etc. ar re-used. 7. Technical description: Manufacture in the rotation-glaze-procedure after DIN 16901,160. Used material VEPE, smooth non paintable surface. Heat resistant up to 85 degrees Celsius, melting point at 120 degree Celsius. Comment: maximum temperature reached in real test / critical area 60 degree Celsius. Content approximately 19850 ccms incl. 2,7 l reserve after completed expansion. The used material VEPE will extend after filling with gas on the outside. After approximately 4-6 hours for about approximately 300 ccms. The extension lies in the further in the median value with 1,74% after 30 days and approximately 2% after 1 year. The tank then remains in this form. This expansion benefits the volume. The stated value of approximately 19850 ccms corresponds to the tank-content after 30 days with our used reverence tanks. Of course, this extension was taken into account on the model and tool-construction. This consequently also guarantees that the tank after conclusion of its expansion still can easily be removed and installed. 8. Attention: In order to exclude possible danger-sources, the buyer is committed to store this instruction and to hand over with sale of the motorcycle or the parts to the new owner. For damages that take place due to improper mounting we will take no liability. 9. It is absolutely necessary to make sure that no other parts of the motorcycle can rub against the tank. This could lead to a tank-leak and fire. 10. No Burnouts with this tank. |
Pay particular attention to the following
areas:
|
| Assemble With application of the series rear fender / mudguard it must be shortened in the area of the tank by about 30 mm. Here you must look out for enough distance (approximately 10mm). Furthermore all parts must be mounted in reverse order of the dismantling. German TUeV The use of this part in public must be approved and written at buyers costs into the motor vehicle-papers of TUeV. With not-enrollment, the licence of the motor vehicle ix extinct.
