4.5. FRONT SUSPENSION

· Start by fitting the rubber bump stops to the chassis. Fix them with a M10 nut.
Position the front suspension unit on the chassis

· Make sure all holes and position pins are lined up.

· Place the M10x1.25 long bolts (again with strength id DIN10.9) in the relevant holes. Do not forget the tab washers!

· Tighten the bolts with a 40 to 50 Nm torque (=30 to 37 lb/ft). Bend the tabs of the tab washers back over the bolt heads, so they are safely secured.

· Grease the knife-edges and put them in their proper place. The large ones fit at the rear, the smaller ones at the front. These knife-edges fall easily into place, when not yet loaded. This is the normal procedure. Do not forget the knife-edge spring fixing clips!

The riding height adjustment is still not possible. The same applies to the wheel alignment.

Fit the gearbox bracket on the front axle tube, using two M7x35 bolts, each equipped with a star shake proof washer and do not forget the little rectangular plate.
