Triple Suspension in Balanced Posture (bottom view):
Extension arms are evenly spaced, and Spring Arms are extended toward the center.
In a dual suspension, the extension arms would be oriented in opposite directions (not shown).
2. While standing on a ladder, place the extension arm on shoulder toward the Spring Arm joint
and life suspension up and down (see the gure below). Observe down tube screws for move-
ment. While moving suspension up and down, tighten the two down tube screws that are
aligned above the extension arm; tighten down tube screws with a torque wrench set to 100 lb-
in (8.33 lb-, 11.3 Nm).
Note e specied torque is close to the maximum allowed for the screw. To prevent
stripping the screw, ensure the wrench is fully seated in the screw socket when
tightening and replace worn screws and wrenches.
WARNING Keep your back straight and li the suspension with your legs to prevent
injury.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 until all six down tube screws have been tightened.
4. To ensure correct torque is set, retighten each screw with a torque wrench set to 100 lb-in (8.33
lb-, 11.3 Nm).
5. Ensure that all screws are seated against the down tube and li suspension up and down. Repeat
Steps 1 and 2 if any screws are not seated, or if there is motion (slop) in the suspension.
