CATEK
Quick Cant Tilt Calculator
A primary benefit of our Quick Cant Tilt system is the ability to precisely set
the binding's lift and cant across a wide range of angles. Typically, riders
experiment with the feel of different settings until they arrive at an optimal
binding position.
In response to some requests for a more definitive system of establishing and
maintaining very specific lift and cant settings, we've developed the Quick Cant
Tilt Calculator. Now you can:
– Accurately set lift and cant per the rider's prescribed
lift and cant
requirements in degrees
– Repeatedly apply prescribed lift and cant settings
– Easily replicate binding settings on different
boards
–
Share and compare lift and cant settings with other riders
The Tilt Calculator translates your desired lift and cant settings (in degrees)
into relative tilt screw turns. By simply counting the relative number of turns
between tilt screws, you can set up your bindings perfectly and consistently
time after time.

Instructions
for Setting the Relative Tilt Screw Turns |
With the binding plate removed from
disc, turn all four tilt screws so that the tilt
screw faces are exactly flush with the bottom of
the plate. |
|
Then turn each tilt screw clockwise
exactly 2 turns so that the tilt screws will properly
engage the angle divots. |
|
For the desired lift and cant combination,
decide which tilt screw corresponds to the:
– Raised End, Raised Side
– Raised End, Lowered Side
– Lowered End, Raised Side
– Lowered End, Lowered Side |
|
Turn each tilt screw clockwise by
the amount prescribed in Tilt Calculator to achieve
the desired lift and cant setting. |
|
Reassemble the binding to the disc
per the Instruction Manual, making sure to turn each
tilt screw an equal amount in the reassembly process.
As long as the tilt screws are turned an equal amount
so that their relative offsets are maintained, then
the plate will have the prescribed lift and cant,
every time! |
