15. Gently tap the reservoir end cap with a rubber
mallet to expose the wire retaining ring. Locate
the end of the ring and push inward with fingertip.
Remove the retaining ring. A scribe or dental pick
can also be used for this step, but use extreme
caution not to scratch the bore of the reservoir
tube. (Fig. 4)
16. Use pliers to grab flats of the gas valve of
reservoir cap. Extract cap from reservoir tube
using a twisting motion. Set reservoir cap aside
on a clean, lint free paper towel.
17. Using your fingertips, depress the bearing into the
body tube to expose the wire retaining ring.
Locate the end of the ring and push inward with
your fingertip. Remove retaining ring. A scribe or
dental pick can also be used for this step, but use
extreme caution not to scratch the bore of the
body tube. (Fig. 5)
18. Align the slot of the Foxt IFP Depth Tool (PN
2871351) with the end of the IFP (Internal
Floating Piston). Insert the IFP tool into the
reservoir and rotate 90 degrees to engage. Push
the IFP Tool until the IFP bottoms out inside the
reservoir. This will cause the shaft assembly to be
pushed out of the body tube. (Fig. 6) Remove the
shaft assembly from the body tube, and place on
a clean, lint free paper towel. Remove the shock
from the vise and pour shock oil from body tube
into a proper disposal container. DO NOT
RE--USE OLD SHOCK OIL.
19. Clamp the body cap of the shock securely in vise
with the open end of the body tube.
20. Gently pull the IFP out of the reservoir tube using
the IFP Depth SettingTool (Fig. 7), and place it on
a clean, lint free towel. Remove the shock from
the vice and pour shock oil from body and
reservoir into a proper disposal container. DO
NOT RE--USE OLD SHOCK OIL. Take several
sheets of clean, lint free paper towels and stuff
them into the body and reservoir tubes. (This
prevents residual oil from dripping out of body and
reservoir.)
