General Operation
4.17
Compression Adjustment
The compression adjustment knob is at the top of the shock.
Printed on the knob is “H” meaning
Hard
(
MAX
, which is for
slower compression) and “S” meaning
Soft
(
MIN
, which is for
faster compression). Turn the adjuster clockwise for a harder
ride (slower compression). For a softer ride (faster
compression), turn the adjuster counter-clockwise. Start with a
middle setting and fine tune the compression from there. Proper
compression allows the tire to track the ground over consecutive
bumps. Compression that is set too hard will pack-up (feel harsh
over consecutive bumps), while compression that is set too soft
causes the shock to bottom out harshly. If the shock is
bottoming out, turn the adjuster one click at a time until the
bottom out stops.
Note: Adjusters should never be forced completely “Soft” or
“Hard”; always leave one click of adjustment in either direction.
