SERIES
Independently adjustable in
both compression and rebound, this series racing shock absorbers offer
over 140 different combinations of compression and rebound, to finely tune
the chassis for maximum performance.
General Precaution -
Do not place piston rod in a vise, nor cause damage to the rod surface.
(Figure 3)
Rebound -
Insert a pin into the slotted adjuster located at top eye (Figure 1). Moving
the pin from left to right (counter - clockwise) will cause the forces
to increase. From the minimum or factory position, There are 12 possible
sweeps of adjustment (1 sweep equals 1/4 turn).
Compression - Insert
a screwdriver into the lower adjustment device (Figure 2). Turning the
screw driver from left to right (clockwise) will cause the forces to Increase.
From the factory or minimum position, there are 12 possible "clicks" of
adjustment.
