STEP 7
Note the way the mechanism
threads the “Rod” and “Rod
Guide”.
STEP 8
To reinstall the “Air Valve”, the
spring mechanism should be on
the side with the hard-stop. Prop
the spring retainer into a neutral
position by inserting a
7
/
64
” or
3mm hex key as shown between
the hard-stop and the spring
retainer.
STEP 9
Adjust the “Rod Guide” towards
the center of the “Intermediate”.
Slide the “Air Valve” into place
so that the forks slide into the
rod guide. Pull the hex key free
and push the “Air Valve” fully
into place. Reinstall the “Muffler
Plate” screws.
AIR VALVE ASSEMBLY
To assemble the air valve, reverse the order of disassembly. During
assembly, ensure that the open side of the lip-seals are both facing
each other inward. Lubrication of the air valve assembly, with a non-
synthetic lubricant, is recommended. Magna-Lube or Magna-Plate
are recommended for assembly lubrication (see detailed parts list for
ordering information).
Note: If the lip-seals are installed incorrectly, they will be unable to rotate.

Note: Always torque the chamber clamps prior to the manifold bolts. When reassembling, loosely tighten all
external fasteners adjusting and aligning gradually, in an alternating fashion, tighten to torque requirements
