17.2 INSTALLATION OF MARKER ALPINIST BINDINGS 17.2 - 15 * Attach the heel of the boot to the heel binding. (17.2 - 15) 17.2 - 16 * Position the heel by turning the length adjustment screw. (17.2 - 16) 17.2 - 17 * Check the correct heel position: the boot has to be flush with the heel housing. Check by inserting a test strip between the boot and the heel housing. The test strip should be able to be removed without tearing. (17.2 - 17) 17.2 - 18 IMPORTANT! For the adjustment of the lateral heel release force, a Torx TX 20 is needed ! (17.2 - 18) * Adjust the lateral release force. (17.2 - 19) IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE SKIER! Explain that MARKER ALPINIST ski bindings do not meet any ISO Certification and therefore the release function does not need to be tested to verify function release. 17.2 - 19 Z = Show where the release adjustment screw is located and explain the visual indicators on the binding and how they do not directly correlate to the initial indicator values on the adjustment chart, but serve as a good starting point for binding setup. Explain the U-BOW (Spring) is a fixed verticle release force and can be changed to achieve the skiers preferred vertical release. Advise the skier as to the correct U-BOW (Spring) per their release/retention preference. The initial indicator values should be used as a starting point for the binding setting process and may need to be modified in order for the skier to achieve correct retention preference. 139 17.2 INSTALLATION OF MARKER ALPINIST BINDINGS
