Insert the suspension fluid level gauge into the inner shaft and draw
excess fluid from the inner shaft by pulling the syringe plunger. When
fluid is no longer pulled from the inner shaft into the syringe, remove
the fluid level gauge tool from the inner shaft.
A suspension fluid level gauge can be purchased from many
motorcycle retailers.
Remove each poppet valve o-ring from the poppet valve.
Install new o-rings onto the poppet valve and apply SRAM® Butter
grease to each new o-ring.
NOTICE
Do not apply grease to the area between the upper poppet piston and
the o-ring just below it. Grease on the shaft under the large poppet
piston o-ring will limit movement when the remote actuator is pressed.
Use a clean rag to wipe away any excess grease from under the large
poppet o-ring.
