Minimum (soft):
5.5 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
3 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
0 turn(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
Slow compression damping force
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the slow
compression damping, turn the adjust-
ing screw in direction (a). To decrease
the compression damping force and
thereby soften the compression damp-
ing, turn the adjusting screw in direction
(b).

screen. See ERS on page 5-19 for in-
formation on how to adjust these set-
tings.
Spring preload
The spring preload adjustment is per-
formed manually.
