Front and rear shock absorber assem-
blies
The shock absorber assemblies are equipped
with a spring preload adjusting nut.
This vehicle is also equipped with a suspen-
sion mode switch which makes it possible to
adjust the damping force. See page 5-19 for
more information on selecting the suspension
mode.
WARNING
EWB00401
Always adjust the shock absorber assem-
blies on the left and right side to the same
setting. Uneven adjustment can cause
poor handling and loss of stability, which
could lead to an accident.
NOTICE
ECB00091
Never turn an adjusting mechanism be-
yond the minimum and maximum settings.
Adjust the spring preload as follows.
1. Elevate the vehicle and place a suitable
stand under the frame.
2. Loosen the locknut.
3. Turn the spring preload adjusting nut in
direction (a) to increase the spring pre-
load and thereby harden the suspension,
and in direction (b) to decrease the spring
preload and thereby soften the suspen-
sion.
