General Safety Information SPD-SL pedals are designed so that you release them only when you intend to release. They are not designed to release automatically at times such as when falling off the bicycle. This is a safety measure to prevent you from losing balance and falling off the bicycle as a result of your feet becoming accidentally released from the pedals. Use only SPD-SL shoes with this product. Other types of shoes may not release from the pedals, or may release unexpectedly. Use only Shimano cleats (SM-SH10 / SM-SH11) and tighten the mounting bolts securely to the shoes. Before attempting to ride with these pedals and shoes, make sure you understand the operation of the engagement / release mechanism for the pedals and cleats (shoes). PD-7800 PD-6610 PD-R540 SPD-SL Pedals Set the cleat on the bottom of each shoe as shown in the illustration, and then provisionally tighten the cleat mounting bolts. Refer to the service instructions provided with your shoes for further details. Note: When installing the cleats, use the cleat mounting bolts and the cleat washers that are provided with the cleats. If you use any other cleat mounting bolts, it may damage the cleats and cause problems with correct installation. Technical Service Instructions Adjusting the spring tension of the binding The spring force is adjusted by means of adjustment bolts at the rear of the pedals. Face the cleats in the direction of release when making this adjustment. Equalize the spring tensions for both pedals by referring to the tension indicators and by counting the number of turns of the adjustment bolts. The spring tensions can be adjusted in four steps for each turn of the adjustment bolts, and each adjustment bolt can be turned up to three full turns. Cleat types and using the pedals Cleat types SM-SH10 Decrease Cleat Wide Increase Note: Adjustment bolt SM-SH11 The body cover is a consumable part. Replace the body cover with a new one before any part of the body cover becomes flush with the pedal. If you continue to ride the bicycle without replacing the body cover, it may damage the pedal. Indicator (Option) Narrow Decrease Increase Before riding, adjust the spring tension of the pedals to your liking. SM-SH10 SM-SH11 Fixed mode Self-aligning mode There is no play when the shoes are firmly engaged with the pedals. There is some sideways play when the shoes are firmly engaged with the pedals. Use a lighter spring tension for attaching the pedal cleats when riding in adverse conditions. Adjusting the cleat position Do not turn the bolt past the point at which the indicator shows the maximum or minimum tension. cleats have an adjustment range of 15 mm 1. The front to back and 5 mm right to left. After provisionally tightening the cleats, practice engaging and releasing, one shoe at a time. Readjust to determine the best cleat positions.

After position, firmly tighten the cleat mounting Keep cleats and bindings clear of dirt and debris to ensure engagement and release. bolts with a 4 mm Allen key. Remember to check the cleats periodically for wear. When the cleats are worn, replace them. Always check the spring tension after replacing the pedal cleats and before riding. In order to prevent accidental release from occurring, make sure all the spring tensions are properly adjusted. The spring tensions should be adjusted equally for both right and left pedals. If they are not adjusted equally, it can cause the rider difficulty to engage or release from the pedals. If the adjustment bolt is completely withdrawn from the spring plate, disassembly and reassembly will be required. If this occurs, ask a professional dealer for assistance. Tightening torque: 5 – 6 N·m {43 – 52 in. lbs.} Engaging the cleats with the pedals Press the cleats into the pedals with a forward and downward motion. Mounting the pedals on the crank arms Use an 8 mm Allen key (for PD-7800 pedals) or a 15 mm spanner (for PD-6610 / PD-R540 pedals) to mount the pedals on the crank arms. The right pedal has a right-hand thread; the left pedal has a left-hand thread. If you have any questions concerning your pedals, contact a professional dealer. Read these Technical Service Instructions carefully, and keep them in a safe place for later reference. Body cover Pedal Maintenance of the axle units If you experience any trouble with the rotating parts of the pedal, the pedal may require adjustment. Obtain advice from a professional dealer. Cleat replacement Obtain and read the service instructions carefully prior to installing the parts. Loose, worn, or damaged parts may cause serious injury to the rider. We strongly recommend only using genuine Shimano replacement parts. BE SURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THE ABOVE WARNINGS CAREFULLY. Body cover 4 mm Allen key Ride on level ground first until you become adept at engaging and releasing your shoes from the pedals. Be sure to attach reflectors to the bicycle when riding at night. Do not continue riding the bicycle if the reflectors are dirty or damaged, otherwise it becomes more difficult for oncoming vehicles to see you. If the body cover of the pedal becomes worn, replace it with the accessory body cover as shown below. (The body cover of PDR540 is sold separately.) Cleat washer Before you attempt to ride with these pedals and shoes, apply the brakes, then place one foot on the ground and practice engaging and releasing each shoe from its pedal until you can do so naturally and with minimal effort. When riding at low speed or when there is a possibility that you might need to stop riding, (for example, when doing a U-turn, nearing an intersection, riding uphill or turning a blind curb), release your shoes from the pedal beforehand so that you can quickly put your feet onto the ground at any time.
