Damping force
1. Damping force adjusting screw
To increase the damping force and
thereby harden the damping, turn the
adjusting screw in direction (a). To de-
crease the damping force and thereby
soften the damping, turn the adjusting
screw in direction (b).
Damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
12 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
6 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting screw fully turned
in direction (a)
INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
NOTE:
Although the total number of clicks of
the damping force adjusting mecha-
nism may not exactly match the above
specifications due to small differences
in production, the actual number of
clicks always represents the entire ad-
justing range. To obtain a precise ad-
justment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of the damping
force adjusting mechanism and to mod-
ify the specifications as necessary.

Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber to an open flame or other
high heat sources, otherwise it
may explode due to excessive
gas pressure.

gas cylinder in any way, as this
will result in poor damping per-
formance.
