Compression damping of fork
Hydraulic compression damping determines the reaction when the fork is
compressed. The degree of compression can be adjusted with adjusting
screws at the bottom of the fork legs.Remove the protecting cap
1.
Turn the adjusting screws 2 clockwise to increase damping, turn it counter-
clockwise to reduce damping during compression.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT
– turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
– turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of
fork
WP 1418W710 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 clicks (SX)
WP 0518W712 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 clicks (EXC/MXC)
Rebound damping of fork
Hydraulic rebound damping determines the reaction when the fork is
rebound. By turning the adjusting screw
1 (REB), the degree of damping of
the rebound can be adjusted. Turn the knob clockwise to increase damping,
turn it counterclockwise to reduce damping during rebounding.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT
– turn adjusting screw clockwise as far as it will go
– turn it back by as many clicks as are specified for the relevant type of
fork
WP 1418W710 . . . . . 16 clicks (SX)
WP 0518W712 . . . . . 12 clicks (MXC/EXC)
Damping action during compression of shock absorber (SX)
The shock absorber on the SX models can synchronize the compression
damping in the low and high-speed range separately (Dual Compression
Control).
Low and high speed refers to the movement of the shock absorber during
compression and not to the speed of the motorcycle.
The low and high-speed technology overlaps.
The low-speed setting is primarily for slow to normal shock absorber com-
pression rates.
The high-speed setting is effective at fast compression rates.
Turning in a clockwise direction will increase the damping, turning counter-
clockwise will decrease the damping.
Standard low-speed setting:
– Turn the adjusting screw 4 to the limit in a clockwise direction using a
screwdriver .
– Unscrew the respective number of clicks for the specific type of shock
absorber in a counterclockwise direction.
Type White Power 1218W738 . . . . . . .15 clicks
Standard high-speed setting:
– Turn the adjusting screw 5 to the limit in a counterclockwise direction
using a box wrench.
– Unscrew the respective number of turns for the specific type of shock
absorber in a clockwise direction.
Type White Power 1218W738 . . . . . . . 2 turns

WARNING
ƽ
THE DAMPING UNIT OF THE SHOCK ABSORBER IS FILLED WITH HIGH-COMPRESSION
NITROGEN
. NEVER TRY TO TAKE THE SHOCK ABSORBER APART OR TO DO ANY MAINTEN-
ANCE WORK YOURSELF. SEVERE INJURIES COULD BE THE RESULT.
N
EVER UNSCREW THE BLACK SCREW CONNECTION 6 (24MM).
