3.1 Installing on the frame

may not be suffi cient to properly install your suspension
system. Please have your suspension system installed only
by an authorized Marzocchi Suspension Center. Improper
installation can result in failure of your Marzocchi Suspension
System, an accident, personal injury, or death.
The interference of the cylinder on the base and the play between
the cylinder and frame are particularly critical factors for the safety of
the operator. For this reason, maintenance and installation must be
performed exclusively at authorised technical assistance centres,
which have suitable equipment and specifi c knowledge.

On all dual crown Marzocchi forks, the lower crown is clamped
to the stanchions using bolts. In this case, please be aware of
the following precautions during installation.
The 888 forks' stanchions whose external diameter has variable section
have to be fi xed to the crowns so that the crown's hole closes the
stanchion completely in the maximum diameter areas (see Picture 2A).
In double crown forks, in case of reference notches on the
stanchions, the lower part of the lower crown must be positioned
above the MIN notch and maximum 6 mm above the reference.
The distance between the infl ated tire and the lower part of the lower
crown, when the fork is at travel's end, must be at least 4 mm.
On the dual crown forks the maximum length of the steer tube
between the two crowns (see Picture 2B) must be smaller than
the values (H) shown in Table 1.

Improper installation of a disk brake system can overstress
the caliper mountings, which may cause the caliper
mountings to break, resulting in loss of control of the bicycle,
an accident, personal injury, or death. Be sure that the brake
system installation is also performed in strict compliance with
the instructions provided by the brake system manufacturer.
Use only brake systems that comply with the forks specifi cations,
taking into consideration the contents of the summarizing tables

A special thread-lock treatment is applied to the thread on the
bolts (see 2A,2B in Table 2). Bolts that are installed and later
removed lose this thread-lock treatment, and therefore can
never be used again.
