Important installation notice: Pinion P1.18 crank clearance

Older CNC-machined Pinion cranks can sit very close to the HIBOX and may touch it. According to our experience as a dealer, forged Pinion cranks are not affected. Correct axial crank positioning according to Pinion’s instructions is essential.

  1. Tighten the centre screw to 10 Nm.
  2. The remaining 1–2 mm of axial movement on the input shaft is normal and no reason for concern.
  3. Pull the crank fully outward to the stop.
  4. Then tighten both clamp screws alternately and in stages to 6 Nm each.

This positions the crank correctly and maximises clearance to the HIBOX.
