Caution :
The shock body must not be unscrewed.
The air can is unscrewed by hand without
additional tools.
Remove the air can (figure 3)
Insert the O-ring(s) from the body side of the
shock (figure 4) and put them in position.
Make sure that the O-ring(s) do not block the hole in the shock (figure 5).
Make sure you have aligned the air can (a) sticker with the rebound knob.
Replace the air can by screwing back by hand until the stickers align to ensure the proper torque (image 6).
Mount the shock on your bike re-inflate it shock and equalize the shock air chambers (chapter 3.2)
Service
It is essential to clean your shock after each day of riding without waiting! Nothing is worse for the life of
your seals than dirt and dust.
The cleaning process is also extremely simple: wipe off the body and the seal with a clean, soft rag. You can
occasionally lubricate the exterior of the seal with fork oil.
Do not under any circumstances use degreaser, solvent, or any abrasive material.
On the same note, do not ever power wash the seals.

Caution :
Oil changes and service should be performed at an official BOS service center. These are the only
locations able to identify and resolve damaged or worn parts on your product, especially in the case
of extreme shocks or premature wear on structural elements such as body, mounting kits, and shaft.
