NOTE:_ Although the total number of clicks of
the rebound damping force adjusting
mechanism may not exactly match the
above specifications due to small dif-
ferences in production, the actual num-
ber of clicks always represents the
entire adjusting range. To obtain a pre-
cise adjustment, it would be advisable
to check the number of clicks of the re-
bound damping force adjusting mecha-
nism and to modify the specifications
as necessary. _
Compression damping force
To harden the compression damping,
decrease the setting by turning the ad-
justing screw. To soften the compres-
sion damping, increase the setting by
turning the adjusting screw. Make sure
that the position indicator is aligned
with the appropriate setting.CI-10EEAU00315
WARNING
_ This shock absorber contains high-
ly pressurized nitrogen gas. For
proper handling, read and under-
stand the following information be-
fore handling the shock absorber.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for property damage or
personal injury that may result from
improper handling.
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the gas cylinder.
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber to an open flame or other
high heat sources, otherwise it
may explode due to excessive
gas pressure.
Do not deform or damage the
gas cylinder in any way, as this
will result in poor damping per-
formance.
Always have a Yamaha dealer
service the shock absorber.
