Slow compression damping force
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the slow
compression damping, turn the adjust-
ing bolt in direction (a). To decrease the
compression damping force and there-
by soften the compression damping,
turn the adjusting bolt in direction (b).
TIP
Although a damping force adjuster
may turn or click beyond the stated mi-
nimum settings, such adjustments are
ineffective and may damage the sus-
pension.
