4. Make sure of integrity of the Polyurethane Damper Elements (Urelastfeder 90 Shores (red
25/10,5 mm. X 20 mm)) (pos. 12). Replace if necessary
5. Clean mating surfaces from remaining grease and debris, specifically care about friction surfaces
of the bronze bushings.
6. Inspect the tubes of the fork for bending, dents and cracks.
7. Inspect the bronze bushings for security and play.
8. Inspect the bronze bushings for integrity; they must be of right circular shape and of constant
thickness.
9. Check surfaces of the bronze bushings for cracks, dents, nicks and wearing.
10. Make sure of sufficient lubricant on friction surfaces of the bronze bushings.
11. Make sure of integrity of o-rings C9997730F (O-ring Simrit72, NBR 872, 28.0x5.0) and
C9997730P (O-Ring 8x18x4) and replace, if necessary.
12. Replace the nut C9996336 (Self-locking nut DIN 985-M8, regular) to a new one.
13. Stack the polyurethane damper elements to the pin axis (pos. 4) as follows: support (pos. 6) flat
surface facing the first polyurethane element, 6 polyurethane elements separated each by a
washer (pos. 3), support (pos. 6) (flat surface facing the last polyurethane element). See Fig 4.
14. When installing the pack, carefully grease up all sides of each polyurethane element using all-
purpose grease. Greasing the elements is very important for the functioning and durability of the
device.
15. Assemble the shock absorber by running items 1 through 3 in reverse order. Tighten the nut
C9996336 (Self-locking nut DIN 985-M8, regular) 200 lb-in / 22.5 Nm.
