I purchased the TireGuard from Bikerhighway. com because they have the best selection and prices for motorcycle products. The correct tire pressure is critical for the safe handling of a motorcycle and this product will alert you when there's a leak. The TireGuard comes with a receiver, batteries for the receiver, two batteries, one for each tire pressure sensor, and the tire pressure sensors themselves, labeled n The first is for the front tire. It's very important before installation to check that there is plenty of clearance between the tire sensor and any part of the bike around each wheel, First we check the front wheel and the sensor is small enough that it looks Now we're checking the rear wheel and it looks We make sure if we need to move the tire stem to another part of the bike that all parts of the wheel with the sensor on it clear the structural parts of the motorcycle. Now we're going to install the battery and the receiver. We open the battery compartment and there's a diagram in there that tells you where the positive and the negative part of the battery is and that gets inserted and the cover gets slid right back into place until the snaps closed. There's a display on there that initially will show zeros because we haven't yet installed any of the sensors and there's also protective cover. Now we're going to install the battery on each of the sensors. Unscrew the cover of the sensor and split the battery with a positive facing the cap end and screw the cap back on. We'll do that to both sensors. This is the n Unscrew the cover. Put the battery in with a positive side up and close the cover. Now we can see that the receiver is showing low pressure for each tire because we haven't yet installed it onto the tire. We can turn the unit off and on with a little button up at the top. Now we're going to install the sensors on each of the valve stems. Unscrew the cover. This will replace any cover that you have on the valve stems. First we're going to put in the anti-thep ring. There's a set screw that we use on a closed allen wrench to loosen it so that it will fit over the stem with the notches facing the open side of the tire valve. Then screw the sensor right onto the tire valve. Make sure that it'snug but not over tight and move the rings up so that the notches connect with the sensor and use the allen wrench to tighten the screws onto the valve stem. This prevents the sensor from being unscrewed. Once you do that you'll notice that there's a tire pressure reading on the receiver. Now we're going to install the rear unit which has got n Same way as we did the front. Your receiver will read zero until you install it. We're putting the anti-thep ring on the valve stem. You may have to loosen it a little bit so that it will fit. Again we want the notches to face the tip of the valve stem. We turn the sensor clockwise until it'snug. Move the anti-thep ring so that the notches connect with it and now we've got a pressure reading for the rear tire. Again we use the allen wrench to tighten the set screw to prevent the sensor from being unscrewed. It's important that you don't over tighten the ring or the sensor but check it. Notice the pressure readings on the receiver. Next step after installing the sensors on the wheels is to put the set points for temperature and pressure. This will determine when the alarm goes off. First we turn on the unit by pressing the power button. Then we press the set button for three seconds. The first setting is the units of measurement for pressure. The choices are Pounce per square inch, PSI, KPA, and BAR. The display will show which unit of measurement is on and by using the star it changes from KPA to BAR back to PSI. So we're going to set it for PSI. Then we'll press the set button again to set the temperature as either Fahrenheit or centigrade and we can scroll through by pressing the star or thermometer. We're going to set it for Fahrenheit. We press that again and this sets the low pressure limit. Since the pressure for this particular motorcycle is set for 29 for the front wheel, 29 PSI, I'm going to set it for two pounds below that for when the alarm goes off, the low pressure alarm. That can be done by pressing either of these two to go up or down. This will be set for 27. Then since the pressure is 29, I want to set it for two pounds above and I'll scroll this up or down until it reaches 32 and then press set again. The next is the temperature and I'm going to set it for a row temperature or rather a tire temperature based on the ambient conditions of the maxim I'm going to set it to 135 by scrolling this to 135 appears and then press set. Now we do the same thing for the rear tire. The rear tire is set for 32 so the low pressure will be set a couple pounds below that to 30 by pressing either of these two. Press set and now the high pressure will be two pounds above. My normal tire pressure is 32 so we'll set it for 34 and press set again and the high temperature will be the same for the rear tire as for the front tire. We press set again. Now all the set points are set the minim Either if the pressure is too high, if the pressure is too low, or if the temperature is too high.
