5.5 Negative Air

If you inflate pressurized air through the valve,
you can reduce the fork's static load.
By increasing the pressure inside the fork's leg,
you increase the force required for the fork to
start sliding.
Moreover, the negative air allows regulating the
travel maximum value in a range corresponding
to 20 mm.
If you increase the pressure inside the fork's leg,
you reduce the travel.
5.6 PAR - Air Progression At Travel
End
If you inflate pressurized air through the valve,
you can modify the damping of the forces
generated during the compression phase at the
fork's legs travel end.
If you increase the pressure inside the fork's leg,
you increase the compression final braking.

5.7 Rebound Adjustment

Through the extension adjuster you can control
the fork's rebound speed following compression.
A correct adjustment of the rebound speed
allows you to have a stable bike whose wheel
can properly react to obstacles on the trail.
If the adjustment is too reactive, the fore-
carriage becomes unstable and the mountain
bike may swing. Conversely, a rebound speed
that is too slow makes overcoming multiple
obstacles
difficult.
This
suspension cannot go back to a completely
extended position between each obstacle.
The rebound speed adjustment is made through
internal or external adjusters.

5.8 Compression Adjustment

You can control the compression speed through
the compression adjuster.
The compression adjustment can be done
according to the user's needs, but it must be
adjusted to a setting that will prevent the fork
from "bottoming."
If your fork "bottoms" out, immediately
adjust the compression adjustment or check
the
compression adjust can result in fork
damage, an accident, personal injury or
death. Adjusting your oil height should be
conducted
knowledgeable
technician.
A "hard" compression adjustment offers more
stability, and allows for a more aggressive riding
style by making the mountain bike more
reactive. A "softer" adjustment offers less
stability with the advantage of a less "nervous"
riding style.
The compression adjustments, depending on
the model, can control the compression
damping
progressively intervene at the end of the travel
only.

5.9 ETA (Extension Travel Adjustment)

The ETA cartridge offers "on-the-fly" adjustment
of the rebound damping by reducing the fork's
length, while maintaining 30 mm of travel.
The adjustment has two positions:
Position LOCK
When turning the knob clockwise, you activate

the ETA cartridge function.
In this position the fork's legs will stay
compressed after an impact, and additional
impacts will further lower the fork.
This position is only suitable for hard, steep
climbs.
Position UNLOCK
When turning the knob counterclockwise, you
reset the fork's normal function by deactivating
the ETA cartridge function,
NEVER use the LOCK position while riding
downhill as the fork will not react properly
when hitting obstacles, and can result in a
loss of control of the bicycle, an accident,
personal injury, or death
