REPLACING THE LOCKING PLATES – Ergatta

REPLACING THE LOCKING PLATES

The following steps should be followed in order to replace locking plates on youe mounting arm. Note this will require replacing the wiring in the arm as well. For serial numbers after 600900 this will only be the power wire, if your serial number is before 600900, the harness will include both the power and sensor wires.

  1. Begin by disconnecting the wires connected to the Touchscreen, as well as the Touchscreen mount. The power cable (attached to the Touchscreen) and sensor cable (attached to the mount) can be left hanging from from mounting arm. Place the USB cable in a safe location.

  2. Using the 1/8th" Allen Key, remove the Touchscreen bolt from the Touchscreen mount.



  3. Gently pull the touchscreen forward off of the mounting arm.



  4. Remove the rubber liner from the inside of the mounting arm to expose the power and sensor cables, then remove the power and sensor cables from the arm.

  5. Using a 4mm Allen Key, remove the two bolts securing the arm to the forward risers. Pull on the locking mechanism to unlock the arm, then remove the arm from the rower. Note: if your serial number is after 600900, the sensor wire will remain attached to the tank and arm. The arm can be gently placed on top of the tank with the wire still connected.

  6. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the right cover plate from inside of the arm, allowing you to access the wire harness. Place the screws in a safe location.

  7. Using a Philipps head screwdriver, remove the cable harness and wires from the mounting arm. Note: if your serial number is after 600900, the sensor wire will remain attached to the tank assembly, otherwise it will be removed with the sensor wire and replaced.



  8. Take the replacement cable harness with locking plate and secure it to the mounting arm with a Phillips head screwdriver, then re-secure the locking plate onto the arm. At this stage, the wires can be left hanging from the bottom of the arm.

  9. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the left cover plate from inside of the arm. There will be no wires on this side. Using the screws removed, install the replacement locking plate.

  10. Place the arm back onto the rower, while pulling the locking button to the unlocked position. Once the arm is re-aligned, secure the arm back onto the rower using the 4mm Allen key and two (2) bolts removed in Step 5.

  11. Replace the new cables back into the mounting arm, then re-insert the rubber liner along the arm. It may be helpful to pull the rubber liner until it's taught then press it into the arm, repeating this process until the liner is fully re-inserted.

  12. Take your touchscreen and place it onto the mounting arm ensuring it is pushed all the way back onto the arm. 

  13. Re-insert the Touchscreen bolt into the mount and tighten down with the 1/8" Touchscreen bolt.

  14. Re-attach the wires per the below diagram:
