Rebound adjuster servicing
Disassembly
Push back the return spring, away from rod end.
Clamp the end of the rod (25) at the 17 mm nut in a vice. Be careful not to dam-
age the washers and do not
overtighten.
Loosen the nut (34) using a 10 mm wrench.
Remove in the order: nut (34), calibrated spacer (28), washer or washer stack
controlling rebound damping (33), washer centring bushing (27), piston (32) with
its ring (31), by-pass washer or washer stack (30) and spring (26).
Assembly
Washers (33) and piston (32) control rebound damping. When needed, the
fork's rebound response may be tuned by choosing washers (33) and a
piston (32) with different specications. The by-pass washers (30) control
compression damping. When needed, the fork's compression response
may be tuned by choosing washers (30) with different specications.
WARNING
Use only genuine Marzocchi washers and pistons. Do not make changes
to fork components.
Replace the piston ring (31) if needed.
Slide spring (26) and by-pass washer or washer stack (30) over rod end.
Hold the spring compressed and insert in the order: piston (32) with its ring
(31), washer centring bushing (27), rebound washer or washer stack (33), and
calibrated spacer (28).
WARNING
The piston (32) has a mounting position (shown in the gure). Its cylindrical
section must be facing away from the rebound washers.
Tighten the nut (34) nger tight.
Tighten the nut (34) to the specied torque using a 10 mm wrench (see Tighten-
ing Torque Figures table).
Remove the damper rod (25) from the vice.
