2.2 BINDING INSPECTION:
GENERAL NOTE:
In order for Marker to optimize our quality management and product
design it is requested that all Marker ski binding quality and product
issues be reported to your Marker sales representative and / or
distributor.
As an authorized MARKER retailer, you agree to check all the equipment
according to ISO 11088 before the installation or adjust ment of
the function unit ski / ski binding / ski boot. If necessary, you have to
replace one part of the unit or all three parts. All parts have to be in
accordance with ISO standards.
All new MARKER bindings are in accordance with the requirement of
the international norm (ISO) and may even have a higher accuracy than
required. They are also inspected by the TÜV Product Service. Before
the installation and adjustment perform a visual inspection of the binding
(especially with used bindings).
NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
* Check if the release force settings are correct according to the
skier.
* Check the surfaces which stay in direct contact with the ski boot
if they are deteriorated or damaged.
* Repair or replace the deteriorated or damaged parts with new
parts.
* Check if the gliding AFD is damaged.
* Check if the ski brake is broken or bent, and check function.

* Remove dirt or corrosion with a moist rag or with compressed air.
Repair damaged parts. Do not use solvents. Do not use silicone or
any other lubricating agent on the toe and heel cup areas or any
other binding part that has direct contact with the boot.
REMARK:
MARKER ALPINIST, ALPINIST DEMO, KINGPIN, KINGPIN
MWERKS & KINGPIN DEMO ski bindings do not meet ISO
Certification.
MARKER ALPINIST, ALPINIST DEMO, KINGPIN, KINGPIN
MWERKS & KINGPIN DEMO ski bindings are compatible with
ski boots with tech inserts to the Dynafit specification of
29.09.2009. In addition, some boot manufacturers have developed
boots and manufactured their own inserts for their touring
ski boots which should be suitable for Pin-Tech bindings. However,
Marker cannot guarantee that these inserts will function correctly.

2.3
SKI INSPECTION:
Follow the ski manufacturer's instructions concerning drill bit dimensions,
adhesives or tapping. In the absence of any ski manufacturer
guideline, follow the recommendations in this chapter.
* Ensure adequate thickness to allow for proper screw penetration
depth. If you suspect that the ski may be too thin, place the
binding component on the ski so that the screw, about which
you are concerned, hangs over the side of the ski. If it looks
like the screw may dimple the ski base use a shorter MARKER
screw or carefully grind the screw.
Pay special attention when mounting junior skis. For the installation of the
7.0 / 4.5 bindings use the drill bits 3,6 x 7,5 or 4,1 x 7,5 for both junior
skis and adult skis.
The models Race 10 and Race Junior 8 will accommodate both junior
skis and adult skis. When mounting these binding models on group 3
and 4 junior skis use the drill bits 3,6 x 7,5 or 4,1 x 7,5. Furthermore,
the pre-installed screws have to be removed and replaced with
the junior screw set.
* Ensure adequate width. Check the location of any top edges
which the binding screws might contact and cause delamination
or distortion. This is especially important for narrow skis with
aluminum top edges.
* Check the location of the reinforced mounting platform or similar
reinforcement plates which are 3 to 6 mm below the top surface.
These plates must be drilled completely through to ensure proper
screw penetration and retention and to help prevent top - sheet
delamination caused by a screw tip not penetrating the mounting
platform.
CAUTION !
When installed, the screws should not dimple or pierce
the ski base.
CAUTION !
The intended use of MARKER ski bindings is only for the
sport of alpine skiing and should not be used for any
other purpose.
