key wrench, turn end cap with face spanner wrench
(YTL2-0002), tighten set screws to 8-10 lb-in. Over
tightening is not necessary and will strip the screws
or possibly damage the housing body. See Figure 3.

Setting Top Load Spring Force
1. Determine initial spring setting from spring
force chart below.
2. Compress the spring with the locking ring just
enough to allow the adjustment ring into its
correct setting.
3. Move the adjustment ring to the desired
setting. Bring the locking ring down and jam
the rings together with a spanner wrench.
4. For optimum results check download force
with a force scale.
5. Set headset on the scale and manually
compress the spring downward 5mm. Take
the force reading at this position. The lines on
the spring cover are .100” (2.5mm) apart, so
two lines equal the recommended .200” (5mm)
compression.

NOTE: The charts above provide actual spring
loads without any added load due to the
weight of the headset. These spring loads are
valid for any headset. Not all headsets have
the full range of settings; some headsets do
not have a ‘3.0’ setting, other headsets do not
have ‘1.0’ or ‘1.5’ settings. The spring loads
are calculated at the given deection as listed
in the chart.

Setting Application Torque
1. Determine initial clutch setting from torque chart
below.
Recommended Maintenance
Schedule
Lubricate the upper assembly every 500
hours of run time.
2. Loosen the torque adjustment screws. Rotate the
adjustment ring using the face spanner wrench to
the desired setting and then retighten the torque
adjustment screws. Do not use the set screw in
the slot on the backside of the housing for torque
adjustment. Tighten set screws to 8-10 lb-in.
Over tightening is not necessary and will strip the
screws or possibly damage the housing body.
3. For optimum results, check setting with a torque
wrench and FIX-0007 or FIX-0010.
