Once you have the forward pressure set properly like in the image below you are good to go. Remember you are looking for the end of the yellow tab to sit as closely to the middle of the window while your boot is engaged in the binding. Each time you do this reengage the boot back to the binding to identify how much forward pressure has changed. Start by sliding the heel piece back/forward one increment at a time, depending on whether the boot is too tight or too loose, and pressing the tab back down to secure the binding. When theres not enough forward pressure the heel piece must be moved forward towards the tip of skis. When the forward pressure is too high the heel piece must be moved backwards toward the tail of the skis. Wedge the flat head underneath this tab and simply leverage the tab upwards, which will disengage the locking mechanism. To adjust the heel piece/forward pressure take a flat head screw driver and locate the metal tab underneath the forward pressure window. When the bindings have too much or too little forward pressure, they are not safe and you should not take them out on the hill. When the yellow tab is not visible at all, this indicates the forward pressure is too high. This will result in ejecting far to easily. When the yellow tab has filled the window completely this indicates that the forward pressure is too loose, as the image on the left shows. Showing half the yellow tab and half of the clear window is considered perfect forward pressure. The ultimate goal is to get the yellow tab to split the window directly in the middle. On the axial system the window, which is about 1cm long, will either have a yellow tab filling the entire window, half the window, or not visible at all. Once you have engaged the boot to the binding there is a window on the track directly under the heel piece. First click your boot into your current Rossignol Axial binding. Step one will be going over identifying forward pressure. I will go over how to adjust these bindings and what you'll be looking for regarding a proper and improper adjustment.
If the ski boot is too large or small the binding must be remounted, which is an entirely separate process that should absolutely be done by a professional at your local shop. Binding adjustments are primarily done to a pre mounted binding with a similar sized boot. Each ski binding on the market has there own parameters for proper setup, in this blog I will be going over how to adjust Look SPX and Pivot. Ski binding adjustments is a rather simple process, but it is imperative that adjustment is done correctly.
