ADJUSTERS

Compression damping controls the energy absorption 
when the shock absorber is being compressed, thus 
controls how easily the shock absorber compresses 
when you hit a bump. Rebound damping controls the 
energy absorption when the shock absorber is being 
extended and controls how fast the shock absorber 
returns to its normal position after being compressed

To set the adjusters

The adjusters have a normal right hand 
thread. Turn the adjuster clockwise to fully 
closed position (position zero [0]). Then, turn 
counterclockwise to open, and count the clicks 
until you reach the recommended number of 
clicks. For rebound use a 3 mm Allen key to 
adjust.

 Caution! 

Turn gently to avoid damaging the adjusters. The end 

positions have a distinct stop. Do not use force to turn 

the adjusters further, this can damage the adjusters and 

lead to oil leakage.
