3. INSTRUCTIONS
3.1.
Remove shock absorber from motorcycle according to procedures recommended in the
manufacturer's manual.
3.1.1.
Place the VS1824 body into position engaging the jaws on the spring as far apart as possible as shown in
fig.1.
3.1 2.
Ensure that the jaws are correctly aligned, making sure the two arms are parallel to each other.
3.1.3.
Tighten compressors by turning the two 17mm hex adjuster bolts clockwise using a suitable
ratchet wrench. The coil will need to be compressed equally on each side - alternate between each arm
so as not to unbalance the spring. Compress the spring without allowing it to become coil bound.
3.1.4.
When spring is compressed enough to rotate on the strut remove top plate from strut, then withdraw the
spring.
CAUTION: To remove the spring from the compressors turn the two 17mm hex adjuster bolts anti-clockwise,
alternate between each arm so as not to unbalance the spring. DO NOT attempt to remove the spring from the
compressors until all tension has been removed.
3.1.5.
Reverse above procedure to replace spring.
