Recommendations
- Use the oil quantities to know how much oil you should purchase.
- Adjust the fork oil based on oil level measurement rather than relying solely on volume.
- Oil level should be measured generally with the fork fully compressed and without the spring installed, although there are models where the spring should be kept installed.
