Spring Preload
Turn the knob on the hydraulic preload
adjuster to set the spring preload. Turn
clockwise to increase the preload, turn
counter clockwise to decrease.
Rebound
Turn the wheel on the piston shaft above
the end eye/bracket. Turn clockwise to
increase damping, turn counter clockwise
to decrease.
NOTE!
When delivered the Öhlins shock absorber
is dialed to the recommended settings
for the specifi c vehicle model. If you have
changed the setting, reset according to the
following:
The adjuster has a right hand thread. Turn
the adjuster clockwise to fully closed (pos.
zero [0]). Turn counter clockwise to open
and count the clicks until you reach the
recommended number (see Set-up Data).
CAUTION!
Do not use force, delicate sealing surfaces
can be damaged. Handtighten only.
Length
We recommend you to adjust the length
before installing the shock absorber to
the vehicle. Use two wrenches. Hold the
upper nut with one hand and at the same time
loosen the lock nut (lower nut). Turn the end
eye/ bracket to the desired length. Lock the
lock nut. Tightening torque: 40 Nm
WARNING!
The adjustable end eye/bracket must not be
threaded out more than that the groove is fully
visible beneath the lock nut. This is maximum
length. After adjusting, make sure that the lock
nut is tightened.
