CHASSIS3-22TIPTo obtain a precise adjustment, it is advisable tocheck the actual total number of turns of thedamping force adjusting mechanism. This ad-justment range may not exactly match the spec-ifications listed due to small differences inproduction.Compression damping (for slow compres-sion damping)NOTICEECA24390Do not turn the adjuster forcibly beyond itsadjusting range.1. Adjust:• Compression damping (for slow compressiondamping)a. Turn the adjuster “1” in the direction of “a”or “b” to make an adjustment.TIPAlthough the total number of clicks of a dampingforce adjusting mechanism may not exactlymatch the above specifications due to small dif-ferences in production, the actual number ofclicks always represents the entire adjustingrange.
