Lock-out function
The lock-out function is activated and deactivated using the rotary knob on the right stand
tube of the suspension fork.
The rotational direction for activating or deactivating the lock-out function depends on the
model.
INFORMATION
You can use the lock-out function to lock the suspension fork completely, e.g. if you
are pedalling hard and the suspension is adversely affecting your progress or riding
comfort.
∙
Please note that the suspension can compress up to 15 mm on uneven road
surfaces, even when the lock-out function is activated.

Wear and maintenance
Observe the information on specified service intervals in the manufacturer's instructions.
If you hear unusual noises when compressing and decompressing the fork or have the
impression that the suspension offers no compression resistance, ask your specialist dealer
to inspect the suspension components.

Wipe off any dirt using a clean cloth with a dab of oil applied, if necessary.
• After cleaning, apply a small quantity of lubricant to the sliding surfaces, e.g. multi-pur-
pose oil. If necessary, consult your specialist dealer for advice on suitable lubricants and
care products.
-
After lubricating, push down on the suspension five times to compress it.
-
Afterwards, wipe up any excess lubricant with a clean cloth.
