Operating the Adjustable Screen

The Puig Touring Screen features an adjustable mechanism to customize airflow and wind protection based on rider preference and riding conditions.

• Ajust: The screen's height and angle can be adjusted. Typically, this involves loosening specific fasteners on the adjustable mechanism, sliding the screen to the desired position, and then re-tightening the fasteners securely.
• Nota de seguretat: Always adjust the screen while the motorcycle is stationary and the engine is off. Never attempt to adjust the screen while riding.
• Prova: After adjustment, take a short, low-speed ride to assess the new position. Make further adjustments as needed until optimal comfort and wind protection are achieved.

Note: Some adjustable mechanisms may require tools for adjustment, while others might feature quick-release levers. Refer to the specific mechanism design for your model.

Manteniment

• Neteja: Clean the windshield regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the screen's surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
• Inspecció: Periodically inspect all mounting hardware for tightness. Vibrations from riding can cause bolts to loosen over time. Check the screen for cracks, scratches, or other damage that could impair visibility or structural integrity.
• Mecanisme ajustable: Keep the adjustable mechanism clean and free of debris. If it becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the sliding parts, avoiding contact with the screen surface.
