5.1.4 Air preload
ATTENTION
To inflate your fork, use only the special
MARZOCCHI pump with pressure gauge,
which you can buy at the authorized centers.
Use of improper tools might lead to improper
inflating and cause improper function or
damage to the fork itself.
NOTE
If you need to reduce the pressure inside the
fork’s leg, just push lightly on the valve pin, by
means of a pointed object. Apply the same
preload pressure on both legs.
By pressurizing air through the valve (D), you
can adjust the damping of the forces generated
during the COMPRESSION phase.
If you increase the pressure inside the fork’s leg,
you increase the preload. To do so, you need to:
• remove the dust cap (A).
• fully tighten the threaded pump adapter.
• inflate air up to the required pressure.
• refit the dust cap (A)
Some forks are provided with a more
sophisticated adjustment system and a different
air valve: in this case, to adjust the air preload,
you will need the supplied dedicated adapter.
Right leg positive air adjustment:
• Using a 2mm Allen wrench, loosen the screw
(C) fixing the ECC5 knob.
• Pay attention that pin (L) and spring (H) do
not come out of their seat.
• Remove screw (C) and knob (B).
• Fit and tighten the adapter of the inflation
pump (E) to the valve.
• Inflate till reaching the pressure you wish.
• Refit the knob (B).
• Using the 2mm Allen wrench, tighten the
screw (C) to the recommended torque (see
table - Tightening Torques).
