Adjustment*Procedure*30*Series*
Adjustment must be made with the damper removed from the vehicle or at a minimum with the shaft end
of the damper disconnect from the mount.
Do not clamp here!
Figure 1: Only hold by attachment on body, lower dust cover.
Figure 2: The handy adjustment button. Depress the button while turning clockwise to give increased
damping forces.

1. Remove the dust cover and expose the adjusting button (figure 2).
2. Hold the damper body by hand where the piston rod emerges from the cylinder. Push the
button carefully, by hand, and hold it in that position (figure 1 & 2). (Do not use any device,
other than by hand to depress button).
3. The adjusting device has been provided with a number if clearly distinguishable stops (clicks),
each of which marks an adjustment position (zero + 3 clicks = 4 positions) (figure 4).
4. The damper may have already been adjusted earlier. Therefore, check whether the shock
absorber is in the position by turning the piston rod to the left (counterclockwise) with the other
hand until the zero-stop is felt - DO NOT USE FORCE!
5. To increase rebound, turn the piston rod one or more clicks to the right (clockwise), and release
the adjusting button.
6. Be sure the adjusting button fully springs back into position. As long as the button is depressed,
do not turn the piston rod further; otherwise correct adjustment will be disturbed. As soon as
the button has made its complete return, the piston rod may be turned freely. The damper can
now be refitted.
