Use a hobby
knife to clear
out the bleed-
er hole in each
shock cap!
Do not
overtighten!
* Shock Bleeding Steps:
1. Fill shock body 3/4 full with silicone
shock fluid
2. Slowly move the shock shaft up and
down to remove any air bubbles.
3. Wait for the air bubbles to surface,
then compress the shock shaft half way.
4. Fill the shock within 0.5mm from the
top with silicone shock fluid.
5. Gently seat the bladder into the shock
cap
6. Thread the shock cap onto the shock,
excess fluid will exit thru the bleed hole.
7. Tighten cap by hand, and pump the
shock up and down to check for leaks
or air bubbles.
8. If the shock is leaking, tighten the
cartridge or shock cap and retry.
9. If the shock has air bubbles, remove
the cap and start at step 2.
Note:
This setting is known as half rebound.
* Shock Bleeding Steps:
1.
Before assembly, install bleeder screw
and thread it 1-2 turns into the shock
caps. This will make installation easier
when you are bleeding your shocks.
2. Pull shock shaft down.
3. Fill shock body 3/4 full with silicone shock
fluid.
4. Slowly move the shock shaft up and down
to remove air from under the piston.
5. Wait for bubbles to come to surface.
6. Fill shock body to top with silicone shock
fluid.
7.
Place a drop of oil in the cap and on cap
threads.
8. Install cap (without bleed screw) and
tighten completely.
9. Slowly compress shaft all the way to bleed
excess silicone shock fluid out the hole in
the cap (use rag around shock to catch
excess fluid).
10. Install 2x4mm button head cap screw
until snug while shaft is fully compressed
(recommend using a high quality 1.5mm
wrench such as Factory Team #1544).
