vSystem Installation
Step 1 - Find a vacuum source
Locate the vacuum – Remove the rubber inlet manifold, and drill a 3mm hole in one side. Then fit the Universal Spigot, available from Scottoiler, using washers and an RTV, silicon type sealant, to ensure an airtight seal. Re-install the manifold and then press the Damper Elbow onto the spigot. Caution: Remove any drilling swarf / loose material from the manifold before re-installation. For further information see our easy step installation guide - Vacuum Connections General.
Step 2 - Find a place for the reservoir
The reservoir can be mounted to the frame. The more vertical the reservoir is mounted the better. Avoid positioning the reservoir completely horizontally, as this will limit the available range. Remember to avoid exhaust and engine components. For further information, see our easy step installation guide – Reservoir Positions.
Step 3 - Mount the dispenser and connect the system
The Dispenser assembly can be secured on the chain guard bolt using the small dispenser plate and clip. The delivery tubing can be routed along the swing arm using self - adhesive cable clips. See our easy step installation guide - Dispenser Positioning. The nib should lightly touch the face of the rear sprocket, with the slash cut facing outwards.
Step 4 - Fill, prime and set up your vSystem
Once fitted, fill and prime the system and set the adjuster knob to ’prime’. Start the engine and turn the adjuster knob until a flow of between 1 and 2 drops per minute is achieved. Check the condition of your chain after a ride, and then adjust as required.
For best results clean your chain before fitting the Scottoiler using paraffin or similar. Then lightly oil the chain from the bottle using a rag or a brush, this allows the oil from the Scottoiler to reach both sides of the chain. 1 to 2 drops per minute will maintain this film of oil on the chain.
