WARNING!

The shock absorber is provided with a
separate type reservoir filled with high-
pressure nitrogen gas. To prevent dan-
ger of explosion, study and make cer-
tain that you fully understand the follow-
ing information before handling the
shock absorber. The manufacturer can-
not be held responsible for damage to
property or personal injury that may re-
sult from improper handling.

1. Never tamper with or attempt to dis-
assemble the cylinder or the reservoir.

2. Never expose the shock absorber to
an open flame or other excessive heat.
The shock absorber may othervise
explode due to too high pressure.

3. Be careful not to damage any part of
the gas reservoir. A damaged gas res-
ervoir will impair the damping perform-
ance or cause malfunction.

4. Take care not to scratch the contact
surface of the piston rod of the cylinder;
oil could othervise leak out.

5. Never attempt to remove the plug at
the bottom of the nitrogen gas reservoir.
Any attempt to remove the plug implies
serious danger.

6. When scrapping the shock absorber,
follow the instructions for disposal.
