Lower Leg Installation

Install the black bottom bolt into the spring side shaft.
Install the silver or red bottom bolt into the damper side shaft.

Lyrik™:

 Install the rebound damper knob and tighten the set screw. 

Do not over-tighten the set screw. Over-tightening will seize the 
adjuster knob and it will not turn.

Yari™:

 Install the rebound adjuster knob and press it firmly onto the bolt.

Refer to your pre-service recorded rebound setting to adjust the 
rebound damping.
