WARNING!
The shock absorber is provided with a separate
type reservoir filled with high pressure nitrogen
gas. To prevent danger of explosion, study and
make certain that you fully understand the fol-
lowing information before handling the shock ab-
sorber. The manufacturer cannot be held respon-
sible for damage to property or personal injury
that may result from improper handling.
1. Never tamper with or attempt to disassem-
ble the cylinder or the reservoir.
2. Never expose the shock absorber to an open
flame or other excessive heat. The shock ab-
sorber may othervise explode due to too high
pressure.
WARNING!
Never alter the gas pressure. Special purpose
charging equipment and access to nitrogen is
required. The gas pressure should normally never
be altered. 3. Be careful not to damage any part of the gas
reservoir. A damaged gas reservoir will impair the
damping performance or cause malfunction.
4. Take care not to scratch the contact surface
of the piston rod of the cylinder,oil could other-
wise leak out.
5. Never attempt to remove the plug at the bot-
tom of the nitrogen gas reservoir. Any attempt
to remove the plug implies serious danger.
6. When scrapping the shock absorber, follow
the instructions for disposal.
