Rebound -
The red rebound knob located at the top of the fork
controls how fast the fork returns following compression. There are a
total of 2 ¼ turns of adjustment. Turn the knob in the “+” direction
(clockwise) for more damping and slower rebound speed. Turn the
knob in the “-” direction (counter-clockwise) for less damping and
faster rebound speed.
Lockout-
The Lockout Lever controls the fork lockout. Rotate the
lever completely between the stop points to the LOCKED (no travel)
or the UNLOCKED (free fork) fork travel.
Changing Lockout Lever Position
The position of the lever can be changed according to your preference.
To change the position, loosen the set screw on the lockout lever,
rotate the lever where you want it, and then retighten the set screw.
Do not over-tighten.
