There's a bunch of setup posts but I can't think of one to search on so...
Breifly:
-Set your sag, making sure you don't need more than 3 turns on the preload collar. Most ppl like 30% sag.
- Deflate the Boost Valve and then turn the large blue Bottom Out adjster knob to about halfway or maybe a bit more if you are heavy and/or like a firmer ride and firmer bottom-out. It is MUCH easier to turn the BO knob if the shock is deflated. Also whenever you change the BO the chamber volume changes so the BV pressure changes with it...thus it's best to reset the pressure anyway.
- Reinflate the BV to an initial setting of around 120-135psi if you like a stronger platform and/or are heavier go for the higher end of that range. 150PSI tends to be too much for most people's tastes.
- Set the small blue ProPedal knob to 5-7 clicks from full out...and tune to taste on the ride. The BV sets the minimum PP effectiveness so when you add more BV pressure the PP slides up with it.
- Set the red Rebound knob to taste... some like a slower rebound some like it faster. It depends on your terrain and style. I ride with a slower rebound because I do a lot of rock crawling and short steep chutes w/ little runout (low speed manuvering) faster riding would do better with a faster rebound.
*Caution* Never compress or cycle the shock unless the BV has at least 75-80psi in it or you can damage the shock in a way that only FOX or Push can repair.
