CHANGING SUSPENSION MODULE HEIGHT

CLEANING:

 

Rinse your SHOCKWAVE S6 Suspension 

Module with fresh water after each use to prevent build up 
of salt and corrosion. Treat the suspension module with 
Boeshield or similar protectant every month or as often 
as possible to prolong the appearance and service life. To 
remove any dirt/salt build up on the seat, use upholstery 
cleaner as required. 

LEAKS:

 

The shock absorber may need to be topped up 

occasionally. While it is recommended to regularly check 
sag and shock settings, the shock absorber does not 
require constant pressure adjustment. 

SHOCK ABSORBER LEAKS:

 

If you experience excessive 

pressure loss, check the fill valve to see if debris is interfering 
with its operation or perform a simple soap solution test to 
identify the source of the problem. If a leak is found, replace 
the shock absorber or the stainless steel fill valve core.

BOLT TORQUE (TIGHTNESS):

 

All fasteners are prone 

to becoming loose from sustained high performance use. 
SHOCKWAVE recommends that all bolts should be visibly 
inspected for signs of being loose after every 125 hours of  
use. Always use a thread-locker on threads to prevent 
loosening of fasteners. 

Be sure to wash your suspension module properly. Thoroughly wash module 
with fresh water and boat or car wash detergent, removing all contaminants 
and surface corrosion.

Following CLEANING instructions is the most important way to maximize seat life.

Bushings are all self lubricating.
