ADJUSTING REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS

preload ring nut, with which it is possible to adjust the

how the vehicle is driven and where.
• The adjustment is carried out using the wrench
supplied, by acting on the ring nut located in the
top section of the shock absorbers (R-Fig.32); turn
anti clockwise to increase spring pre-load (load
increase).
