To increase the rebound damping force, turn
the adjusting dial in direction (a). To decrease
the rebound damping force, turn the adjusting
dial in direction (b).

Adjusting the compression damping
force of the rear shock absorber
(RX10PXT)
The compression damping force can be ad-
justed by turning the adjusting knob.
To increase the compression damping force,
turn the adjusting knob in direction (a). To de-
crease the compression damping force, turn
the adjusting knob in direction (b).
NOTICE:
Do not continue to turn the adjusting knob
in direction (a) after it stops. The shock ab-
sorber could be damaged and damping
force adjustments will not be able to be
made. Do not turn the adjusting knob in di-
rection (b) more than 12 click(s). Even if
the adjusting knob is continually turned
after 12 click(s), there will be no change in
the damping force. Be sure to stop the ad-
justing knob at a position where there is a
click.
