Shock Bleeding Steps:
1. Before assembly, get each bleed
screw and thread it 1-2 turns into the
shock cap. This will make installation
easier when you are bleeding your
shocks.
2. Pull shock shaft down.
3. Fill shock body 3/4 full with silicone
shock fluid.
4. Slowly move the shock shaft up and
down to remove air from under the
piston.
5. Wait for bubbles to come to surface.
6. Fill shock body to top with silicone
shock fluid.
7. Place a drop of oil in the cap and on
cap threads.
8. Install cap (without bleed screw) and
tighten completely.
9. Slowly compress shaft all the way to
bleed excess silicone shock fluid out
the hole in the cap (use rag around-
shock to catch excess fluid).
10. Install M2x4mm button head screw
until snug while shaft is fully com-
pressed.

Racers Tip:
Lightly rub shock oil on the
o-ring before installation!
Racers Tip:
Coating the o-rings
with green slime
helps seal & reduce
o-ring swell! Green
slime not included
in kit!
Racers Tip:
Use a marker over the
numbers on the pistons to
make them easily visible!
