NOTE:

•If the machine is new and after it is broken in, the same set length of the spring may change because of the initial fatigue, etc. of the spring. Therefore, be sure to make re- evaluation.

•If the standard figure cannot be achieved by adjusting the spring adjuster and changing the spring set length, replace the spring with an optional one and make re-adjustment.

Setting of spring after replacement

After replacement, be sure to adjust the spring to the set length [sunken length 90 ~ 100 mm (3.5 ~ 3.9 in)] and set it.

1.Use of soft spring

•Set the soft spring for less rebound damping to compensate for its less spring load. Run with the rebound damping adjuster one or two clicks on the softer side and readjust it to suit your prefer- ence.

2.Use of stiff spring

•Set the soft spring for more rebound damping to compensate for its greater spring load. Run with the rebound damp- ing adjuster one or two clicks on the stiffer side and readjust it to suit your

preference.

*Adjusting the rebound damping will be followed more or less by a change in the

compression damping. For correction, turn the low compression damping adjuster on the softer side.
