Oxford Hotgrips instructions v.8 switch - 09/07/12

F: Positioning on handlebars:
1. Position the grips so that the wires do not foul against the brake / clutch levers. The throttle grip should rotate freely
without obstruction and without stretching or pinching the wires. The ideal fitment position of the grips can vary
from bike to bike. We nd that an ideal position can be one whereby the wires of the grips sit just below the brake
and throttle levers. This position allows the Hotgrip wiring to be neatly attached to the clutch/brake cables and
usually prevents the wires from being strained. We have molded an arrow into the grip to indicate the position that
we consider to be the correct tted position on the handle bar. (picture below)
However some people prefer the wire of the grips to sit a safe clearance above the brake and clutch levers so that
the wire exits forward and relatively horizontal. When the throttle is opened the wire will then raise upwards and
away from the brake lever.
2. Before removing the grips for the nal tting procedure, it is important to connect the electrical wiring harness to
the battery and the grips. With the motorcycle engine running the grips can be switched on to make sure that the
grips operate as expected.
G: Final fitting of grips
1. Use the Super glue provided. It has been proven for this application and we cannot guarantee the suitability of an
alternative. Under no circumstances should the grip be tted to the handlebar without glue!
2. WARNING: The Superglue will bond skin and eyes in seconds. Keep out of reach of children.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO FIT THE GRIP IMMEDIATELY AND WITHOUT DELAY BECAUSE THE SUPERGLUE
PROVIDED WILL BOND THE HOTGRIPS TO THE BARS VERY QUICKLY. THIS IS PARTICULARLY RELEVANT WITH THE
THROTTLE SLEEVE AND HOTGRIPS
Don’t let the glue drip onto paintwork. Shield paintwork appropriately.
3. Clutch side HotGrips:
Apply plenty of glue along the length and around the diameter of the handle bar where the grip will nally sit.
Push the grip into place ensuring that the HotGrips are positioned correctly so it does not foul the clutch
operation.
4. Throttle side HotGrips:
If the grip is a very tight t over the throttle slider, then it is advisable to apply plenty of glue on the actual
plastic throttle slider on the inner most flange and less along the length of the throttle slider. This is to ensure
that the grip and glue do not set too early and half way up the throttle slider. We would also recommend to
apply a ring of glue around the outer end of the throttle slider as some of this will naturally be drawn up the
length of the throttle slider tube. If however the grip slides easily over the throttle slider then we would
recommend using plenty of glue around the whole circumference of the throttle slider to ensure a safe and
secure fitment.
