WARNING
This shock absorber contains gaseous
nitrogen at high pressure. Before handling
it, read and understand the following infor-
mation. The manufacturer will not accept
any liability for damage to property or per-
sonal injuries stemming from improper
handling.
• Do not tamper with or attempt to open the
cylinder assembly.
• Do not let the shock absorber get in con-
tact with flames or other sources of inten-
se heat.
This could cause an explosion through
excessive pressure.
• Do not deform the cylinder or allow this to
deteriorate in any way. Any damage to the
cylinder will reduce the efficiency of dam-
ping.
• Take care not to scratch the contact sur-
face of the piston with the cylinder as
there could be oil leaks.

ber see the section on “OBSERVATIONS

Elimination steps:
Before throwing the shock away the gas

by making 1 a 2 ~ 3 mm hole in the wall of
the cylinder at a point located 15 ~ 20 mm
from the end of the gas chamber.
