Adjusting the spring preload
Use the following procedure to adjust the spring preload.
Loosen locknut 1, turn ring nut 2 clockwise to increase the
spring preload (and consequently the shock absorber preload)
and anticlockwise to decrease it. Once the desired preload has
been obtained, turn locknut 1 until it comes into contact with ad-
justing ring nut 2.
Spring preload: 260 mm
Adjusting the rebound damping
The rebound damping is adjusted by means of screw 3.
Turning the screw anticlockwise (out) decreases the damping
action.
Standard adjustment:
24 clicks from the completely closed position
Charging the battery
Remove the battery and check its charge. Using an open-circuit
multimeter (10-12 hours after the activation), check that the volt-
age is greater than 12.6 V. If it is lower, recharge the battery.
Depending on the recharger that is available, recharge the bat-
tery using one of the following procedures:
– Constant voltage: charge the battery with a voltage of 14.4-15
V for about 12 hours. 10-12 hours after the charging is com-
plete, measure the voltage as previously described.
– Constant current: charge the battery at 0.5/0.8 A until the volt-
age between the terminals settles around 14.5 V.
WARNING: The battery is sealed. When recharging, do
not remove the seal plug nor add any liquid.
WARNING: To recharge the battery, first connect it to the
battery charger and then turn on the charger.
When recharging indoors, take care to ensure proper
ventilation. During the charging the battery produces ex-
plosive gases.
