Control functions Rebound damping setting: Minimum (soft): 22 click(s) in direction (a)* Maximum (hard): 0 click(s) in direction (b)* * With the adjustment dial in the standard position RX10RTR The compression damping force can be adjusted by turning the adjusting screw. To increase the compression damping force, turn the adjusting screw in direction (a). To decrease the compression damping force, turn the adjusting screw in direction (b). • Do not turn the adjusting screw in direction (b) more than 20 click(s). Even if the adjusting screw is continually turned after 20 click(s), there will be no change in the damping force. • Be sure to stop the adjusting screw at a position where there is a click.
