3. Navodila za uporabo

The QA1 TS512 is a single adjustable shock, meaning it allows for adjustment of either compression or rebound damping, depending on the specific valving. This adjustment is typically made via a knob located on the shock body.

Adjusting the Shock:

• Locate Adjustment Knob: Identify the adjustment knob on the shock body.
• Understand Settings: The knob will have numbered settings or clicks. Turning the knob typically increases or decreases the damping force. Consult QA1's specific documentation for your shock's adjustment range and recommended starting points.
• Make Small Adjustments: Start with small adjustments (e.g., 1-2 clicks) and test the vehicle's handling and ride feel.
• Preizkusi in izboljšaj: Drive the vehicle under various conditions to evaluate the changes. Adjust further as needed to achieve your desired ride comfort and performance.
• Konsistentnost: Ensure that adjustments are made equally on both sides of the vehicle (e.g., both front shocks or both rear shocks) to maintain balanced handling.

The goal of adjustment is to fine-tune the shock's response to road conditions and driving style, optimizing both comfort and control.
