3 (6.86 Imp oz, 6.59 US oz)
4. After filling, pump the damper assembly 1
slowly up and down (about 200 mm (7.9 in)
stroke) several times to bleed the damper
assembly of air.

Be careful not to excessive full stroke. A stroke
of 200 mm (7.9 in) or more will cause air to
enter. In this case, repeat the steps 2 to 4.
