COIL SPRING PRELOAD
The fork can be adjusted to the rider's weight and preferred
riding style via the spring preload. It is not the coil spring
hardness that is set, but the spring preload. This reduces the
“SAG” of the fork when the rider sits down. A medium
hardness spring is used as standard setting. Turn the preload
adjust knob clockwise to increase the spring preload and turn
it counter-clockwise to reduce it. Two additional spring
hardnesses are available for SR SUNTOUR suspension forks -
softer and harder than the standard coil spring.
MAINTENANCE OF THE FORK
As long as moving parts are exposed to moisture and contamination, the performance of your
suspension system might be reduced after several rides. To maintain high performance, safety
and long life of your suspension system, periodic maintenance is required.
ØA suspension system which has not been serviced in accordance with the maintenance
instructions will not be covered under warranty.
ØNever use a pressure washer or any water under pressure to clean your suspension fork as
water may enter the fork at the dust seal level. Never use aggressive cleaners. We
recommend clear water and a damp cloth to wipe down your fork.
ØYour suspension fork should be serviced more frequently as indicated below if you ride in
extreme weather (winter time, or in wet/muddy conditions) and rough terrain conditions.
ØIf you believe that your suspension system performance has changed or handles differently,
immediately contact your local dealer to inspect your fork.
ØAfter every ride: Clean the fork stanchion tubes and dust seals and maintain with an oily
cloth. Check stanchion tubes for dents, scratches or other discoloration or leaking oil.
ØEvery 50 hours: Maintenance 1 (at dealer)
ØEvery 100 hours or once a year: Maintenance 2 (at dealer, ideally before winter time in
order to protect all parts from the effects of weather by proper greasing)
MAINTENANCE 1:
Check function of fork / check torques of mountings screws and nuts on bottom of lowers
(suggested tightening torque: bolt: 10Nm, nut: 8Nm) / check for scratches, dents, cracks,
discoloration, signs of wear and signs of minor corrosion (maintain with oily cloth), or oil leaks.
MAINTENANCE 2:
Maintenance 1 + disassembly / cleaning the entire fork inside and out / cleaning and lubricating
dust seals and slider sleeves / checking torques / adjusting to the riders liking.
Before disassembly, check the slider sleeve play of the fork. To do so, apply the front wheel
brake and gently push the bicycle back and forth at the handlebar stem shaft. Replace the slider
sleeves if the play is excessive (more than 1 mm at the fork brace).
