Mate the english one is pretty similar to the ping pong manual.

Lots of notes but basically the same.

Turn full clockwise to hardest setting first. More than likely its already set like this from factory.

Then turn anticlockwise to soften. One full turn it 8 clicks.

Shocks have 16 settings and the 17 you can see is not over tighten past the 16th setting to say 1 clicks etc.

continually doing so may damage the shock. Use only the 1-16 settings.

So basically set at hardest setting then back off to standard setting then adjust to desired setting.

Also says to send me a beer

Tein normally set at full soft (recommended setting). The dial is stated as a wear compensation device or for harder springs.

what settings have you guys found works best for your teins?

i found setting of 5 anticlockwise from firmist on front and on the back fully soft to the max, i think the front should always be firmer than the back due to more weight, although the link suggest equal front and back
