My housemate has just bought a set of 'zocchi mx lo forks, these http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Marzocchi_Bomber_MX_LO_2009_Suspension_Forks/5360045723/#more The forks have changed a bit since the mx comps I had over half a decade ago....but the 'zocchi manuals are still as bad as ever ๐Ÿ˜‰
So I'm after some help workng out what the different adjusters are.

Left leg has a large lever at the top, this is the LO which adjusts compression damping and locks the fork - easy. Right leg, according to the manual, has spring preload adjustment. Now the top of the right leg has a black rubber cap marked 'Adjust + -' and if prized off it reveals a small hex head screw so I'm guessing this is the spring preload. I'm also assuming that adjusting the preload will both stiffen the fork, and pack it down/shorten the travel? The other thing I'm unsure of is at the bottom of the right leg is a larger hex head screw (differnt to the dome head nut on the bottom of the left leg) which again I am guessing is an adjustment but I have no idea what, anybody able to fill in the blanks that the 'zocchi manula doesn't?
Thanks
