Pump

A FOX high pressure air pump is available for FLOAT Forx. It is used to make changes in air pressure on your fork.
1. Remove the air topcap from the top of the left fork leg.
2. Thread the pump's valve chuck onto the fork's air-valve until pressure registers on the pump gauge. This takes
approximately 6 turns. Do not over-tighten pump on air-valve as this will damage the pump chuck seal.
3. To increase the pressure, stroke the pump a few cycles. The pressure should increase slowly. If pressure increases
rapidly check to make sure the pump is properly fitted and tightened onto the air valve.
Note: If the fork has no air pressure, the gauge will not register pressure.
4. To decrease the pressure push the black bleed-valve. Pushing the bleed-valve halfway down, and holding it there,
will allow pressure to escape from the pump and fork. Pushing the bleed-valve all the way down and releasing it
will release a small amount of pressure (micro-adjust). When unthreading the pump from the air-valve fitting,
the sound of the air loss is from the pump hose, not the fork itself.
Note: When attaching the pump to the fork, the hose will need to fill with air. This will result in a lower pressure
registering approximately 10 to 20 PSI on the gauge.
Note: Average setting range is from 45 to 125 PSI. DO NOT EXCEED 200 PSI.
5. Replace the air topcap before riding.
