Control functions 5. To increase the air pressure, operate the pump a few times. The pressure should increase slowly. If the pressure increases rapidly, check to make sure that the pump is properly connected and tightened onto the air valve. To decrease the air pressure, push the black bleed valve button. NOTICE: Do not exceed 1551 kPa (15.5 kgf/cm², 225 psi). [ECS00981] TIP To allow pressure to escape from the pump and the shock absorber, push the button halfway down and hold it. To allow only a small amount of pressure to escape, push the button all the way down and quickly release it. 6. Push the hose connector lock lever down, and then remove the hose connector from the air valve. TIP When removing the connector, the sound of air escaping may be heard, but this is from the pump hose, not the shock absorber. 10 1 50 150 0 20 0 7. 250 Install the air valve cap. 10 5 0 RACING SHOX 15 20 0 30 TIP If the shock absorber bottoms too easily or rolls too much during cornering, increase the air pressure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi).

To increase the air pressure, operate the
pump a few times. The pressure should
increase slowly. If the pressure increases
rapidly, check to make sure that the
pump is properly connected and tight-
ened onto the air valve. To decrease the
air pressure, push the black bleed valve
button.
NOTICE:
Do not exceed 1551
kPa (15.5 kgf/cm², 225 psi).
[ECS00981]
TIP
To allow pressure to escape from the pump
and the shock absorber, push the button half-
way down and hold it. To allow only a small
amount of pressure to escape, push the but-
ton all the way down and quickly release it.
6.
Push the hose connector lock lever
down, and then remove the hose connec-
tor from the air valve.
TIP
When removing the connector, the sound of
air escaping may be heard, but this is from the
pump hose, not the shock absorber.
7.
Install the air valve cap.
TIP
If the shock absorber bottoms too easily or
rolls too much during cornering, increase the
air pressure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi). If
the shock absorber is too firm and you want a
more compliant ride, decrease the air pres-
sure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi).

Do not turn the remote adjusting dial while
the snowmobile is moving as this could
cause loss of control, an accident, and in-
jury.
NOTICE

Be sure to stop the remote adjusting dial
at a marked position around the dial where
there is a click.
The rebound damping force can be adjusted
by turning the rear shock absorber damping
