This operation can be carried out with the fork
installed on the motorcycle.
Dismantling

• With a small screwdriver prize the dust seal ( 12 ) off the slider ( 13 ), without
scratching the stanchion tube.
• Slide the dust seal along the stanchion tube and clean inside the dust seal and its
seat on the slider with a jet of compressed air.
WARNING
Never use metal tools to clean any particles of dirt

Bleeding the air
Sospensione anteriore (TE-SMR)
La sospensione anteriore è una MARZOCCHI "U.S.D." teleidraulica a steli rovesciati e perno avanzato; steli di diametro 50 mm .
This operation must be carried out with the fork assembled on the motorcycle and

with the fork's legs fully extended (front wheel off the ground).
The pressure generated by the air that can get into the fork legs while the
motorcycle is being used and which, due to the special shape of the oil seals
remains trapped inside, can cause the fork to malfunction.
Dismantling
• Monthly or after every race use a crosshead screwdriver to unscrew the air bleed
screw ( 14 ) in both the fork legs on the top part of the slider, to drain the pressure
that can build up inside.
• Check the state of the oil seal ( 50 ); replace if necessary.
Re- assembly
• Tighten the air bleed screw ( 20 ) to the recommended torque (see Table 1 -
Tightening torques), being careful not to damage the oil seal ( 50 ).
