Forward pressure

click the boot and slide a thin card between that white, anti-friction surface and the toe of the boot. if you can slide the card around a bit, it's good

^no, that's how you check the toe adjustment height on salomons.

for the axial series, click in your boot and then look at the adjustment screw on the back of the heelpiece (the one that's not the din adjustment). see how the plastic around it forms kind of a recessed half circle? you want to screw that screw in or out until the top of the screw is flush with the deepest part of that half-circle. it's hard to explain, so check this:

not enough forward pressure:


too much forward pressure:


just right. see how it's flush with the recessed part of the plastic?


after you've done that, click out and click in again just to double check, because sometimes if you've made a lot of adjustments while the boot was clicked in, you'll get some weird pressures on the spring and it won't indicate correctly, so just double check for good measure.

good onya for taking the time to explain that...

What about on Markers or the the Look PX series?

bump

well yep, the forward pressure was done all wrong then - the screw was sticking way out, but problem solved now.

sorry, i dunno. most of the bindings come with a little instruction book in the box if you get 'em new, maybe try that or just have your local shop tech run you through it.

There are a few places to check...Sometimes there is a little window on the side of the back part that you need to line up a line in, basically look for anything that moves on the heelpeice when you click in the boot.

Most Markers are like the old looks above. PXs have a window with a yellow indicator that should be halfway along. If you need to ask though, get them done in a shop properly - they'll do it for free if you ask and it takes 30 seconds.
