Refer to the attachment.

BLUE is the market to show which setting you're on.

ORANGE is the area where you will notice the 1-5 levels of setting. I have mine on '5'.

The tip of the tool hooks into the holes. Simply turn the tool while the scooter is on the centrestand. Makes sure the numbers are identical on both left and right sides.

Now I can't find my tool!  Not like me to lose things either!

You don't need the C-spanner. Just get a good grip on it and twist.

Seriously. That's how I do it.
Lifting it up abit to get the notches to turn thru will make it easier.

Loads of stones get logged between the inner and outer tubes.

Nothing much one can do to get them all out.

I used some heavy gloves when scoot was new. Later added a little lube spray.....but haven't messed with them in a long time.
