When removing and retightening the tire valve
acorn nut use minimal torque. When the cap is
over tightened and subsequently removed it may
prematurely break the seal of the tire valve to the
shock body and cause a loss of nitrogen charge
without being noticed. If you suspect this has
happened then recharge the shock as a precau-
tion. Inspect the tire valve cap before installation
to ensure that the internal rubber gasket is in its
proper position.
Adding Gas Pressure
Nitrogen (N) can now be added to damper body.

1. High pressure hose
2. 2 stage regulator, delivery pressure range 2070 kPa (300 PSI)
3. High pressure cylinder filled with industrial grade nitrogen
4. Valve tip (P/N 529 035 570) permanently installed
NOTE: Never substitute another gas for nitrogen.
Nitrogen has been selected for its inert qualities
and will not contaminate the gas chamber of the
shock.
Preset your pressure regulator to 2070 kPa
(300 PSI) nitrogen (N), this gas pressure will re-
store the correct pressure for your damper.
CAUTION: Do not exceed the recommended
pressure values.

WARNING
Whenever working with high pressure gas,
use eye wear protection. Never direct gas
pressure toward anybody.
Use appropriate inflation tool.
Needle Valve Type Shock
Install the gas refill needle type shock tool
(P/N
5 03 190 102) on valve tip (P/N 5 29 03 5
5 70). Set the regulator pressure on the nitrogen
cylinder as per the shock requirement.
