Spring Preload Adjustment; Rebound Adjustment - Husqvarna TE 250 Workshop Manual

FRONT SUSPENSION

SPRING PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT

The spring preload adjustment can be done following the procedure here below
described, after disassembly of the cartridge set from the fork's leg interior (see par.
4.6):
26
Slide the preload adjustment set (7) towards the cartridge lower edge, so that the
metal ring seat becomes uncovered.
7
Using a small flat-tip screwdriver remove the metal ring (26) from its seat.
By changing the metal ring position as to the seats, you will preload the spring more
or less, with 5 mm- increase/ decrease (see figure).
WARNING
During extraction and re-insertion of the metal ring, be very careful not to
damage the components. If the cartridge and more specifically the metal ring
are damaged, even in a light way, do not use the fork in any case and
26
immediately contact an authorized Marzocchi
service center. Do not alter the metal ring.

REBOUND ADJUSTMENT

Adjust extension (or rebound) braking by turning the adjuster (R).
With the rebound adjuster you can control suspension return speed after compression.
The regulating adjuster is on the lower part of the wheel axle clamp in both legs.
The right rebound speed setting makes the vehiclestable letting it follow the
variations in the terrain and any obstacles.
Una corretta taratura della velocità di estensione permette di ottenere un mezzo
R
stabile in grado di copiare fedelmente con la ruota gli ostacoli del terreno.
To modify the rebound braking adjustment, always start from the "fully
closed" position (the screw is fully turned clockwise). Each screw position can
be recognized by a "click". .
Carry out regulation by turning the adjuster with a flat-tipped screwdriver.
• Turning the adjuster (R) clockwise increases the rebound hydraulic damping
making the fork slower during the rebound phase.
• Turning the adjuster (R) counter-clockwise decreases the rebound hydraulic
damping making the suspension more responsive during the rebound phase.

WARNING
Do not force the adjuster past its limits.
