The spring force
The spring force can be set to suit different user weights using the adjustment nut. Increase the
dimension for a harder suspension, decrease the dimension for a softer suspension, see fig.
Return damping valve
To get standard setting, screw the return damping valve fully clockwise by hand. Then screw the valve
fully counterclockwise, counting the ”clicks”. Then screw the valve halfway clockwise i.e. halve the
number of ”clicks”.
Screw the valve clockwise (open the valve) for softer damping, or counterclockwise (close the valve) to
have harder damping .
On early models of the chassis, DNM shock absorbers are fitted. Make sure using the right settings for the right shock absorber.
