Compression damping force
1. Compression damping force adjusting bolt
(for fast compression damping)
2. Compression damping force adjusting screw
(for slow compression damping)
Compression damping force (for fast
compression damping)
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting bolt in
direction (a). To decrease the compres-
sion damping force and thereby soften
the compression damping, turn the ad-
justing bolt in direction (b).
INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Compression damping setting (for
fast compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
42 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
30 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
Compression damping force (for slow
compression damping)
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting screw
in direction (a). To decrease the com-
pression damping force and thereby
soften the compression damping, turn
the adjusting screw in direction (b).
Compression damping setting (for
slow compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
17 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
10 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting screw fully turned
in direction (a)

NOTE:
Although the total number of clicks of a
damping force adjusting mechanism
may not exactly match the specifica-
tions listed due to small differences in
production, the actual number of clicks
always represents the entire adjust-
ment range. To obtain a precise adjust-
ment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of each damping
force adjusting mechanism and to mod-
ify the specifications as necessary.
WARNING
This shock absorber contains highly
pressurized nitrogen gas. For prop-
er handling, read and understand
the following information before
handling the shock absorber. The
manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for property damage or
personal injury that may result from
improper handling.
G
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the gas cylinder.
