REAR SHOCK ABSORBER
WARNING
This shock absorber contains high-pressure
nitrogen gas. Read the following information
carefully before handling it. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for any damage or
injury that may result from improper handling.
Never tamper with or attempt to open the
cylinder or the tank.
Never expose the shock absorber to a
naked flame or other source of heat. This
might cause the pressurised gas to
explode.
Do not deform or damage the cylinder in
any way. Damage to the cylinder would
impair the damping effect.
Be careful not to scratch the surface of the
rod: this would cause the oil to leak.
Before disposing of the shock absorber,
read the section "NOTES ON DISPOSAL".

NOTE ON DISPOSAL

Before neutralising the rear shock absorber:
The gas pressure must be discharged before dis-
posing of the shock absorber it is necessary to dis-
charge the gas pressure. To do this, bore a hole of
2~3 mm through the cylinder wall about 15~20
mm from the bottom of the gas chamber.
WARNING
Wear protective goggles to avoid eye injuries
from escaping gas and/or metal chips.
