RECOMMENDED TOOLS FOR THE SHOCK SET-UP
For the set-up of the shock we recommend to use a shock pump with a scale up to 40
bars/600 psi with a special air valve connector preventing from air getting away while
removing the pump from the shock valve, this will result in an exact air pressure.
Please note that air will flow into the hose and indicator when counterchecking the
air pressure, so you have to set up again the recommended pressure after this action.
Make sure to balance at least this air loss when you make a check of the air pressure
of the shock. Pls also note that the indicators of shock pumps have a tolerance of
max. 10%
SET-UP GENIUS WITH EQUALIZER 3 SHOCK
The Set-Up of the Scott/DT Equalizer 3 Shock can be easy done within a few minutes..
To adjust the air pressure of the air chamber of the Scott Equalizer 2 Shock please refer
to the following instruction:
1. remove the valve cap of the positive valve (S8) which is the LOWER valve
on the shock body and mount the shock pump with its adaptor on the valve.
2. pump the recommended pressure into the shock. On the shock body
you will find a table showing the recommended air pressure of the positive
chamber according to the rider’s weight.
3. when you reached the needed pressure remove the pump and put the valve
cap on the valve
4. remove the valve cap of the negative valve (S9) which is the UPPER valve
