couldnt find anything in the search bar so...

a guy at work is selling his rossi SL skis with fks155s, im keen to get the bindings and put them on a ski with a 94mm waist, will the brakes bend out this far?

Thanks
 
also, i was checking them out and u cant read the din on the heel peices, likes its fogged up or something, is that a problem or would a shop be able to sort it out?
 
so they are mounted up fine but i still havent sorted out the heals, how do i take off the covers? can a shop do it? and the tech said the top sheet measurements are off by 1cm, as in the the indicators are not accurate and said the last shop mounted them so one binding was 1cm behind the other one, common problem?
 
It does happen, that's why most legit shops will measure the entire ski and go off of that instead of using the indicators (sounds like the 2nd shop tech is legit....the first one, not so much), I'd also recommend doing the measurement yourself and using a piece of masking tape and a marker (put masking tape down in general area of where you want it mounted, then use marker on the masking tape at the precise measurement you want it mounted at, that way you don't put a line on your ski) so it's impossible for the shop to mess it up.
 
The shop tech (assuming it's a legit shop...or even just a remotely intelligent tech) will be able to take care of it. After they mount them on the skis they'll do a binding test with a machine that checks the DIN to make sure say a 10 is really a 10 and not a 13 (sometimes some bindings have different tension...like Salomon 916s generally run 2 DIN settings higher than they read on the indicators). So don't worry about it, they shop tech will make sure they are set up right for you.
