E-14 Shifter Unit Removal

Removing the Brake Rotor

To remove the brake rotor, the 4x mounting bolts will need to be unscrewed and fully removed, using a 5mm Allen Wrench.

Lift the worn brake rotor off the SPEEDHUB 500/14 hub-cap, and discard.

If a Rohloff magnet holder is installed in the brake disc, remove it and transfer it to the new brake disc.

Installing the Brake Rotor

Check the rotational direction printed on the Rohloff brake rotor, to ensure this gets installed correctly. Place rotor onto SPEEDHUB 500/14 hub-cap, and rotate until the holes align with the threaded bolt holes of the hub-cap.

Secure the brake rotor in place using the 4 special, Rohloff brake rotor mounting bolts (Art.#8214). Tighten these bolts using a 5mm Allen Wrench.
