4.5 Bleeding the air
This operation must be carried out with the fork assembled on the bicycle and with the fork's legs fully extended
(front wheel off the ground).
The pressure generated by air that can develop in the fork legs while the bike is being used due to the special shape
of the oil seals remains trapped inside, can cause the fork to malfunction.
In case of malfunction or loss of legs' smoothness, please carry out following operation on both legs:
Monster T2
• Unscrew the cap (A) using a 28 mm key as
much as needed to release any air pressure
that may have developed inside the leg.
• Check the oil seal (B) condition; replace if
needed.
• Tighten the cap (A) to the recommended
torque (see Table 1 - Tightening Torques),
being careful not to damage the oil seal (B).
Monster Triple and Super Monster

bleed screw (C) located on the cap, in order
to release the pressure generated inside the
fork's leg.
• Check the oil seal (D) condition; replace if
needed.
