GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURIES:
Bicycle dealers -- be sure to give all instructions and warranty information to end customer.
Read all instructions carefully before using this product. Failure to follow these instructions and warning
statements before installing and using these pedals may result in severe injury. Improper installation
and/or use of this product can result in severe injury. Riding bicycles is an inherently dangerous activity.
Speedplay Drillium Pedals have sharp studs (spikes) to improve shoe traction and prevent a rider's foot
from slipping off the pedal. Sharp spikes can cause bodily damage if they come in contact with
unprotected skin/flesh. Never ride barefoot. Always use protective shin guards and protective footwear
when riding Drillium Pedals.
Never ride with Speedplay Drillium Pedals that are improperly installed, modified or excessively worn.
Remember to check the Pedals periodically for wear or damage. When parts exhibit damage or are
visibly worn, replace them immediately. A loose, over-tightened, damaged, unlubricated, or worn part
may cause the Pedal to malfunction unexpectedly and cause a fall that could result in severe injury.
Speedplay Pedals are not equipped with reflectors. Speedplay Pedals are not intended
for nighttime or other reduced visibility riding conditions. Do not expect Speedplay Pedals to
improve your chances of being seen in conditions of darkness or reduced visibility. Always use a proper
headlight and taillight when riding at any time of reduced visibility. Always wear a helmet when riding.
If you have any doubts about your ability to correctly install Speedplay Pedals, or if you are
unsure about the extent of wear to any Speedplay Pedal, please return it to your dealer for proper
installation or inspection, or call Speedplay at 1-800-468-6694 (Pacific Standard Time). If you have any
questions or concerns about issues such as the intended use of the Pedals, or the maintenance of this
product, call Speedplay toll free at 1-800-468-6694 (Pacific Standard Time).
Speedplay Drillium Pedals require routine lubrication. Keep all
Pedal parts clean of debris and properly lubricated. To prevent serious injury while riding, be sure your
entire bicycle is adequately maintained and that all components are correctly installed and adjusted.
Failure to follow these instructions and warning statements before using these Pedals may result in
severe injury.
