Fast compression damping setting
Minimum (soft):
5.5 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
3 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
0 turn(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
Slow compression damping force
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the slow
compression damping, turn the adjust-
ing screw in direction (a). To decrease
the compression damping force and
thereby soften the compression damp-
ing, turn the adjusting screw in direction
(b).

Although a damping force adjuster
may turn or click beyond the stated
minimum settings, such adjust-
ments are ineffective and may
damage the suspension.
WARNING
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the cylinder assembly.
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber assembly to an open
flame or other high heat source.
This may cause the unit to ex-
plode due to excessive gas
pressure.
Do not deform or damage the
cylinder in any way. Cylinder
damage will result in poor
damping performance.
Do not dispose of a damaged or
worn-out shock absorber as-
sembly yourself. Take the shock
