Întreţinere

Belltech 2212FF Street Performance Shock Absorbers are designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection is recommended to ensure continued optimal operation and safety.

Program de întreținere recomandat:

  • Every 10,000 miles or 12 months (whichever comes first):
    • Visually inspect the shock absorbers for any signs of fluid leaks. A slight film is normal, but active dripping indicates a seal failure.
    • Check the condition of the rubber bushings at both ends of the shock. Look for cracks, tears, or excessive wear.
    • Ensure all mounting bolts are securely tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque.
    • Inspect the shock body and dust boot for any physical damage, dents, or corrosion.
  • After severe off-road use or heavy impacts:
    • Perform an immediate inspection for any damage or misalignment.

The PTFE coated piston and bushing contribute to the longevity and reduced friction of the shock, minimizing internal wear. The powder-coated body and metal dust boot provide protection against environmental elements like dust and debris.

If any issues are detected during inspection, it is advisable to consult a qualified technician for further assessment and repair or replacement.
