Congratulations on your purchase of the most realistic sim-
racing pedals available. This setup guide will help you get the
most out of your new GTpro3 Xtreme pedals. Your GTpro3
pedals will provide you with all the adjustability that they
would have in a real race car to provide you with the purest
sim-racing experience possible.
About this Manual
As we continue to improve the design of the pedals, some
photos may not reflect all the upgrades and therefore may
differ from the product you receive.
Tools and Items Required for Installation (not included)
•Mounting bolts, nuts, and washers
•Drill and drill bits
•Screwdrivers and wrenches
Step 1: Getting Your Pedals Ready for Installation
Mount the slave cylinder to the mounting bracket as shown.
The brake pedal has been secured in the down position to
prevent air from getting trapped at the pressure sensor
during shipping. This is done to avoid the need to bleed the
brake at the time of installation. Do not remove the strap yet.
Remove the “leak-prevention” stoppers from the reservoir
and store them for transporting your pedals in the future.
Check that it is filled to about 30% capacity with fluid.
Set the pedal assembly tilted to 45 degrees, as shown, for a
period of 5 minutes to allow any air bubbles to rise to the top
of the reservoir. Remove the strap holding down the pedal
and press on the pedal with your hand, the pedal should not
move more than ¼ inch (6mm) before the stacking units
begin to squeeze. Turn assembly upright and do not lay it
sideways from this point forward.
If the pedal does move more than ¼ inch (6mm) without
squeezing on the stacking units then air has made its way into
the system during shipping. To remove the air, begin by
removing the nuts that keep the stacking units in place (refer
to figure 3 on next page) and putting the wing nut back on.
Keep the pedal assembly tilted as indicated above and hold
the remote sensor assembly below the height of the pedal.
While holding the sensor assembly with the hose exiting
straight up, pump the stacking unit shaft in and out with your
hand about 5 to 10 times to flush any air bubbles to the
reservoir above. Reinstall the stacking units and test the
pedal, if the problem persists then repeat the steps above.
The pedal should also be pumped before any racing to prime
the system and build up pressure in the system.
ATTENTION! The clutch reservoir ships empty and should
remain empty at all times. This is intentional. Adding fluid
will overload the sensor and will result in permanent failure.
Step 2: Mounting Your Pedals
Ricmotech recommends hard mounting the pedals directly to
your sim-racing chassis. The mounting positions suggested
are only that, a suggestion. Please feel free to change the
placement of the pedals to accommodate your preferred
driving style.
Pre-drill mounting holes in the floor of your racing simulator
according to the template provided. Secure the pedals using
5/16 inch or 8mm thick bolts or screws (not included). Use
nuts and washers to be sure the screws will not pull out.
Route the cables to avoid having them get pinched or chafed
using the supplied cable straps. Mount the PCU in a location
that is both out of the way and within reach of the
programming switch.
