RX10RTR
The compression damping force can be ad-
justed 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).
NOTICE:
Do not continue to turn the ad-
justing screw in direction (a) after it stops.
The shock absorber could be damaged
and damping force adjustments will not be
able to be made. Do not turn the adjusting
screw in direction (b) more than 20
click(s). Even if the adjusting screw is con-
tinually turned after 20 click(s), there will
be no change in the damping force. Be
sure to stop the adjusting screw at a posi-
tion where there is a click.
