ACE Controls AGS-15 - Manual (Page 2)

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 other persons while adjusting.
1. Hold gas spring cylinder upwards (meaning piston rod downwards). Valve is
included in the cylinder thread. If necessary, unscrew the end fitting off the
cylinder.
2. Screw adjusting knob on the thread until resistance is felt. (Part M8-KNOB for
models AGS-19 and AGS-22 or part M10-KNOB for model AGS-28).
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.
