ACE Controls AGS-15 - Manual

CAUTION: units are filled with gas under pressure. It is recommended to use
extreme caution to avoid personal injury. Use safety glasses and avoid pointing
the gas spring at yourself or others while adjusting.
1. Hold gas spring cylinder upward (meaning piston rod downward). Valve is
included in the cylinder thread. If necessary, unscrew the end fitting off the
cylinder.
2. Screw the adjusting knob (M5-KNOB) on the thread until resistance is felt.
3. Screw slowly until you can hear the pressure escaping, then immediately turn the
adjusting knob back so that the valve closes again.
NOTE: to avoid overbleeding, adjust in small increments. In the event that over-
bleeding occurs, units can be returned to ACE and repressurized for a nominal
cost.
4. Repeat the release procedure as often as necessary.
