Air Can Removal
Record your air pressure setting to assist with post-service set up.
Remove the air valve cap by hand. Use a small hex wrench to lightly
depress the Schrader valve and slowly release all air pressure from the
air can.
⚠
CAUTION - EYE HAZARD
Do not disassemble a pressurized shock, this can cause suspension oil
or debris to forcefully eject from the shock. Wear safety glasses.
Slowly release the air from the air can to make sure the air is removed
from both chambers. Quickly releasing the air can trap air in the
negative chamber and cause the air can to forcefully eject from the
shock upon disassembly.
Use a Schrader valve core tool to remove and reinstall the valve core
from the valve body to make sure all air has been removed.
Clamp the shaft eyelet into a vise, with the shock positioned
horizontally.
Remove the sag indicator.
