15.4.2 Forks, repairs and testing
Repairs
Only the fork manufacturer or a specialist of equivalent expertise may
determine whether the fork may be repaired and then used again.
Repairs must only be carried out in accordance with the recommenda
-
tions of the fork manufacturer. It is not recommended that surface
cracks or wear be repaired by welding. If repairs are required to
restraighten the fork, the fork must then be heat-treated in a suitable
manner.
Testing the yield point
A repaired fork (except on repairs to or replacement of position locks
and/or markings) may only be used again if it has undergone a yield
point test as described in ISO 2330 and been approved. However, the
test load must conform with the table.
