Before tightening the vice, make sure the
jaws grip a flat surface and are not
touching the rebound knob.
Procedure
Place the head of the shock in a soft-jawed
vice (figure 1).
Lightly tighten the vice jaws to prevent
damaging the shock.
Note your shock pressure, taking into
account the loss of pressure when
connecting your pump. Slowly deflate the
shock. The shock body will retract slightly.
Unscrew the air can (a) while keeping the
body (b) in its initial position (figure 2).
Remove the air can (figure 3)
Insert or remove O-ring(s) from the body
side of the shock and put them in position
(figure 4).
Make sure that O-ring(s) do not block the hole in the shock.
Make sure you have aligned the air can (a) sticker with the rebound knob (figure 5).
Replace the air can by screwing back by hand until the stickers align to ensure the proper torque (figure 6).
If the stickers do not align when the air can is hand tight, re-inflate and equalize the shock air chambers
(chapter 3.2) then finish tightening the air can.
Mount the shock on your bike re-inflate it shock and equalize the shock air chambers (chapter 3.2).
