Wear
The thickness of Wear Strips (1) may not be less than
1.5 mm (1/16”). When Wear Strips (1) have worn to this
thickness, replace them or fill with spacers (2) (Art. Nº
RE0092002). See point 3 of the Maintenance Schedule.
The inner fork must be replaced when S1 is 5% thinner
than S2. See point 7 of the Maintenance Schedule.
When surface A (dark grey, integrated wear plate) is
worn to the extent that it is level with or below surface B
(light grey), then the sleeve (1) must be replaced or fitted
with a welded-on wear plate. For more information about
welded-on wear plates, please contact your fork supplier.
See point 4 of the Maintenance Schedule.
Caution:
The sleeves must be removed from the KOOI-
REACHFORKS® before welding work can
proceed.
Pistons, piston rods and cylinder heads must
be removed before welding is carried out in the
inner fork.
Applies only to: KOOI-REACHFORKS® type RGE and RGEN
;
When surface A (dark grey, integrated wear plate) is
worn to the extent that it is level with or below surface
B (light grey), then the sleeve (2) must be replaced. If
there are signs of wear in the lower side of the sleeve (2)
then it must be replaced. See point 4 of the Maintenance
Schedule.
