IFP height is critical for proper function. The graphics and
measurements on your Reverb IFP Height tool may vary. Always
measure from the bottom of the tool and mark the tool with the
measurement for your Reverb seatpost.
Hold a shop towel over the end of the IFP height tool.
Hold the Reverb Post Bleed tool securely in the post head to prevent it
from dislodging. With your other hand, push the IFP into the upper post
with the IFP height tool, slowly and carefully, to the correct height. Stop
when the measurement mark on the IFP tool is level with the top of the
upper post.
NOTICE
Do not push the IFP beyond the appropriate IFP height mark on the
IFP tool. If the IFP is pushed in too far, the IFP tube and IFP must be
removed
and
reinstalled
.
⚠
WARNING - EYE HAZARD
When the IFP is pressed into the upper post fluid will be displaced
through the IFP Height tool and may be forced outward. Cover the top
of the IFP Height tool with a shop towel to contain the fluid. Keep your
eyes and face away from the end of the IFP tool during installation.
Wear safety glasses.
Slowly remove the IFP Height tool from the upper post.
Fluid must be level with the port holes in the top of the IFP tube.
