Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your bottom bracket. If you are unsure about any steps, it is recommended to seek assistance from a qualified bicycle mechanic.
- Paratowch y Gragen Braced Gwaelod: Ensure the bicycle's bottom bracket shell threads are clean, free of debris, and properly faced. Apply a thin layer of bicycle-specific grease to the threads of the bottom bracket shell.
- Install the Right-Hand Cup: The right-hand cup (drive side) typically has a standard right-hand thread (tightens clockwise). Carefully thread the right-hand cup into the bottom bracket shell by hand to avoid cross-threading. Once hand-tight, use a compatible bottom bracket tool to tighten it to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Install the Left-Hand Cup: The left-hand cup (non-drive side) typically has a left-hand thread (tightens counter-clockwise). Carefully thread the left-hand cup into the bottom bracket shell by hand. Use a compatible bottom bracket tool to tighten it to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Gosod y Crankset: Slide your JIS square-taper crank arms onto the square spindle ends. Ensure they are fully seated.
- Breichiau Crank Diogel: Install the crankarm fixing bolts (sold separately) and tighten them to the crankset manufacturer's specified torque.
Pwysig: Always refer to the torque specifications provided by your crankset and bottom bracket manufacturers. Over-tightening or under-tightening can lead to component damage or unsafe operation.

- Gwiriwch am Chwarae: Periodically check for any lateral or rotational play in the crank arms. If play is detected, first ensure the crankarm fixing bolts are tightened to specification. If play persists, the bottom bracket may require replacement.
- Gwrandewch am Sŵn: Pay attention to any creaking or grinding noises during pedaling. These can indicate insufficient torque, contamination, or wear.
- Bearing Service: The sealed bearings of the BB-UN300 are not designed for user-level service or regreasing. If the bearings feel rough or exhibit significant play, the entire bottom bracket unit should be replaced.
7. Datrys Problemau
Addressing common issues can help maintain your bottom bracket's performance.
- Sŵn Cregyn:
- Ensure bottom bracket cups are tightened to the correct torque.
- Verify crankarm fixing bolts are tightened to the correct torque.
- Check for clean threads on both the bottom bracket and the frame shell. Re-grease and re-install if necessary.
- Excessive Play in Crank Arms:
- Confirm crankarm fixing bolts are securely tightened.
- If play persists after checking bolts, the bottom bracket bearings may be worn and require replacement of the unit.
- Difficulty Threading During Installation:
- Ensure the bottom bracket cup is perfectly aligned with the frame's bottom bracket shell threads before turning.
- Never force the threads. If resistance is met, unscrew, clean threads, and re-attempt alignment. Cross-threading can permanently damage the frame or bottom bracket.
- Ensure the correct thread direction for each cup (right-hand cup tightens clockwise, left-hand cup tightens counter-clockwise).
