REBOUND ADJUSTER A
The rebound adjuster is located near the bottom of the shock and
controls the “bounce back” speed of the utility vehicle. To adjust
the rebound or “bounce-back” speed, follow the steps below:
NOTE: Each position has a stop or “click” to indicate the setting.
1. Insert a standard screw driver into the adjustment.
2. Rotate the screw into one of the 18 positions between
“S” (position 0) and “F” (18). Rotate the screw clockwise
(towards the “S” or “0” position) to slow the rebound and
counter-clockwise (towards the “F” or “18” position) to speed
up the rebound.
PRELOAD SPRING ADJUSTER B
The pre-load adjuster is located in the body of the shock
and controls the height of the vehicle. It can be adjusted to
accommodate for different load situations.
NOTE: This adjustment requires a spanner wrench to complete.
A spanner wrench is included in the tool kit shipped with this
utility vehicle.
1. Using a spanner wrench, loosen the upper lock nut.
2. Adjust the pre-load adjuster nut to the desired setting. Turn
the pre-load adjuster clockwise to increase the compression
force (raise the utility vehicle) and turn the pre-load adjuster
nut counter-clockwise to decrease the compression force
(lower the utility vehicle).
DAMPING RATE ADJUSTER C
The compression adjuster is located on the upper part of the
shock and controls the ride of the utility vehicle and the impact
resistance of the shocks.
NOTE: Each position has a stop or “click” to indicate which of the
18 positions it is in.
