The damper may have already
been adjusted earlier. Therefore, check whether the shock absorber is in
the zero position by turning the piston rod to the
left (counterclockwise) with the other hand until the zero-stop is felt
- DO NOT USE FORCE!
5.
To increase
rebound, turn the piston rod one or more clicks to the right (clockwise),
and release the adjusting button.
6.
Be sure
that the adjusting button fully springs back into position. As long as
the button is depressed, do not turn the piston rod further; otherwise
correct adjustment will be disturbed. As soon as the button has made its
complete return, the piston rod may be turned freely. The damper can now
be refitted.
The adjustment is made with
the shock fully extended.
1.
Remove the plastic dust cover
to expose the adjusting button (Figure 2).
2.
Hold the damper body by hand
where the piston rod emerges from the cylinder. Push the button carefully,
by hand, and hold it in that position (Figure 1 & 2). (Do not use any
device, other than by hand, to depress button).
3.
The adjusting device has been
provided with a number of clearly distinguishable stops (clicks), each
of which marks an adjustment position (zero + 3 clicks = 4 positions) (Figure
4).
Figure 1.
Figure 2. UNIQUE.
The handy adjustment button. Depress the button while turning clockwise
to give increased damping forces.
Figure 3.
Do not place the shock absorber in a vise (except at the lower eye). See
Figure 2.
Figure 4. Rebound Adjustment
(approximate forces). Listen for the clearly distinguishable clicks, each
of which marks an adjustment position. 26 Series range limited to two clicks.
28 and 30 Series range is three clicks.
