5. OPERATION/INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
A. Change of position setting
To switch between the SLIDING (for sports performed on a board, skis, skates, etc.) and BIKING positions, move the pin that secures
the upper end of the shock absorber from position 1 to position 2, as follows:
•
Unscrew the two screws at the two ends of the pin using the two Torx T30 keys supplied.
•
Remove the pin using the pin removing tool supplied.
•
Insert the pin in the desired position.
•
Refit the two screws with their washers, apply a drop of XC048 low-strength thread-locking compound, and tighten the
screws to a torque of 6 Nm.
(Pre-flexion of 12°)

The screws must be tightened and untightened with a torque wrench fitted with a Torx T30 bit.
If the screw head becomes deformed, replace the screw with one of the two spares supplied.
The maximum flexion stops in the BIKING position are only present to protect the shock-absorber; they must not under any
circumstances be subjected to stresses regularly and repeatedly.
B. Selecting the position and settings for different activities
The shock-absorber fitted offers three setting controls:
•
BLUE control (FIRM / MEDIUM / OPEN) sets the compression speed to slow, medium and fast respectively.
•
BLACK control (ADJUSTING TRAIL MODE) used to fine tune the compression speed, in OPEN mode only, with 3 positions
available: 1, 2 and 3 from soft to firm.
•
RED control (REBOUND) sets the extension speed.
C. Adjusting shock-absorber pressure
Using the pump provided, pressurise the shock-absorber to the required pressure.
If the pressure is too high, reduce it using the air release button on the pump.
Only used the pump supplied or a pump fitted with a 20-bar gauge suitable for FOX shocks.
The combinations of positions and settings indicated below are provided as a guide only and may vary as a function of the activities
performed and the patient's weight:
Sporting activities:
1.
Pin position:
•
BIKING: road cycling, cross country MTB, downhill MTB and motocross
•
SLIDING: all other activities (on a board, skis, skates, etc.)
2.
Flexion setting:
•
OPEN (blue control)
3.
Extension settings:
•
REBOUND generally set to maximum and adjusted as required (red control)
4.
Pressure:
•
0 bar: Road cycling, cross country MTB
•
1 to 3 bars: Surfing, paddleboarding, waterskiing, wakeboarding
•
4 to 6 bars: Downhill MTB, snowboarding, piste skiing
