FRONT SUSPENSION

• Install the hose connector

absorber pump to the shock absorber air

When installing, make sure the shock absorber

is down as shown in the illustra-

Do not overtighten the connector onto the

air valve as this will damage the connector

• Lift up the shock absorber pump lever

• Use the low pressure gauge

absorber pump and measure.

• If the shock absorber has no air pressure, the

gauge reading will be zero.

• To increase the air pressure, operate the

pump a few times. The pressure should

increase slowly. If the pressure increases

rapidly, check to make sure that the pump is

properly connected and tightened onto the air

valve. To decrease the air pressure, push the

bleed valve button

To allow pressure to escape from the pump

and the shock absorber, push the button half-

way down and hold it. To allow only a small

amount of pressure to escape, push the button

all the way down and quickly release it.

• Lay flat the shock absorber pump lever

• Remove the hose connector from the air

When removing the connector, the sound of air

escaping may be heard, but this is from the

pump hose, not the shock absorber.
