INSTALLATION
Remove the existing turn signals. A hole with a diameter of 8.2 mm is drilled
to mount the fastening thread. The hole is carefully deburred, the connection
cable is passed through and the fastening thread is screwed on with the M8 nut
with a maximal tightening torque of 4 Nm.
The attachment must be horizontal and at an angle of 90 ° to the direction of
travel.
PERMISSIBLE MOUNTING DIMENSIONS
FRONT
Distance between headlight edge and indicator lens| min. 75 mm
Inner distance indicator left and right| min. 240 mm
Distance to road| 350 – 1200 mm
REAR
Distance between indicator lens and vehicle tail| max. 300 mm
Inner distance indicator left and right| min. 180 mm
Distance to road| 350 – 1200 mm
CONNECTION
The two connecting cables from indicator and vehicle will be not stripped.
The indicator plus cable of the vehicle and the red cable of the mo.blaze are
plugged into the supplied 3M cable connector and will be permanently
electrically connected by pressing down the orange cap. This is also done with
the second connection wire.
No tensile forces may act on the connection cable. Make sure the cable is long
enough. The connection cable must be protected from damage and wear in
stressed areas.
OPERATION
The indicators are properly installed and comply with the legal requirements if all instructions in this manual have been followed. Test the turn signals for their function. If the flashing frequency has changed, or if all 4 flashers light up, you need an electronic, load-independent flashing relay (e.g. mo.flash, motogadget item number 4000010).
NOTES
The mo.blaze is only approved as a front or rear direction
indicator for motorcycles in the EU. The approval mark is located on the turn
signal glass. An entry in the vehicle documents is not necessary. No papers
have to be carried.
When doing electrical work on the vehicle, disconnect the battery and ensure
that the vehicle is in a safe position during installation.
If you are unsure about the correct installation or connection, hire a
specialist.
Permanent attachment is only guaranteed through proper assembly.
Incorrect installation or alignment of the indicators can lead to accidents
and the expiry of the operating permit.
Check and correct the correct rotational alignment of the indicators by
checking the brightness at a distance of 10m.
Damage to the cable insulation can lead to a short circuit and a cable fire,
which may life-threatening.
The turn signal housing heats up during operation. Only operate the blinker in
the mounted state in blinking mode. Use in continuous operation is not
permitted.
The aluminum fastening thread is hollow and not suitable for connecting
structural components of the vehicle. The maximum tightening torque is 4 Nm.
Clean the indicators with soapy water only. The use of abrasive cleaning
agents or steam jets is not permitted. Contact with organic solvents such as
alcohol, acetone, gasoline, isopropanol will damage the optical lens.
The indicator is only suitable for 12V vehicle electrical systems with a
battery and a voltage regulator. Voltages over 18V or voltage peaks caused by
a defective regulator or battery lead to a defective indicator.
The housing of the turn signal must not be altered or opened. The event of
mechanical damage render all guarantee and warranty claims invalid. The use
for applications that do not correspond to the intended purpose render all
guarantee and warranty claims invalid.

damage of any kind resulting from the use, attachment or connection of the
