Follow~
Oil quantity: 520 ± 2.5 crn-,
Oil level: 118
±
2 mm (from the slider edge).
NOTE
In order to obtain a correct measurement of the
oil level, the slider (22) must be perfectly vertical. The oil
level must be the same for both tubes.
• *
Grasp the slider (22) and make it slide slowly and al-
ternately, with a stroke of approx. 150 mm, about 10
times, thus letting out all the air that is inside the slider.
• *
Push the slider (22) to the end of its stroke.
• *
Wait for a few minutes and check the oil level again;
top up if necessary.
The tube (21) must slide inside the slider (22)
smoothly, without finding any obstacle; if this does
not happen, it means that the guide bushing (20), the
slide bushing (17) or the gasket (18) are damaged.
• *
Keep the slider (22) in vertical position.
• *
Push 'the slider (22) to the end of its stroke.
• *
Pour fork oil inside the tube, see 1.6 (LUBRICANT
CHART) until reaching the correct level, which can be
measured by introducing a graduated stick (26) in the
tube.
