#ATOMIC 310 BINDING ADJUSTMENT MANUAL#
The shop manual could be a bit more clear in this regard as it shows that the silver piece should be flush with the back of the Shift heel-piece housing (picture below). Have your set-up off by less than a cm and you'll likely pre-release. If you have snow on your toe and step in you'll likely pre-release. Setting up Shift forward pressure to correct spec is crucial. I'm living dangerously and have the AFD barely touching the bootsole There should be the tiniest of gaps between AFD and the bootsole. This isn't a Salomon/Atomic recommendation so do what you have to do. Note also that some users (I am one of them) aren't adjusting the Shift AFD to shop manual specs but overtightening approximately a 1/4 turn so the AFD barely touches the boot sole to help avoid pre-releases and the AFD migration issue. Not enough to lift it up a click, but to tighten it so that the edge really sits safely on the right level. The AFD will then suddenly click down to the position you needĤ. Adjust the AFD down slowly, while putting a bit of pressure on the toe. Crank the AFD up to one position above what you needģ. Understand that you are not dealing with a step-less, smooth setting action, but a step-by-step slider that climbs or goes down one step at the timeĢ. MnO has some useful hints on how you can adjust the AFD to have it stay in place:ġ. The reason for this is not user mechanical ineptitude but the fact that the AFD screw is not an infinite adjustment but instead, a stepped adjuster where dialling the AFD adjustment screw moves the AFD up and down in increments. Then use a flathead screwdriver (or whatever you have handy) to raise the boot toe and only then turn the AFD adjustment screw to raise the AFD to the desired position.Īdjusting the AFD to the desired position and having it stay there seems to be a major issue for many people and the reason for many pre-releases. What you may have to do is then insert a boot into the toe. If you find it hard to do so you might be wedged under the black toe block and not up and flush against the wings. The Shift's AFD adjustment screw usually is shipped in-box in the lowest setting.
