Additionally, these rugged units offer the unique feature of front or rear adjustment along with a fully threaded outer body for ease of installation. MAGNUM® Group adjustable shock absorbers are directly interchangeable with previous ACE and competitor models. Along with the self-compensating models, the adjustable range offers unprecedented increases in energy and effective weight capacity. Applications are the same as self-compensating models.

It is available for MAA and MLA air return models including the 4575 and 64150. Add -HT to end of model code when ordering. Oil type: ATF Materials: Steel with Weartec Plus finish. Piston rod high tensile steel, hardened and chrome plated. Rod end button hardened steel with black oxide finish. Zinc plated return spring. For optimum heat dissipation, do not paint shock absorber. Adjustment: After installation of the MAGNUM® Group shock absorber, cycle the machine a number of times. Turn the front stop collar or the rear adjuster against the scale marked 0 to 9 until optimum deceleration is achieved (i.e. smooth deceleration throughout the stroke). Hard impact at the start of stroke-turn adjuster toward 9 Hard set-down at end of stroke-turn adjuster toward 0. Technical data applies to standard and metric threaded models. ACE Controls recommends that side load not exceed 5°. Maximum side load depends on application. For additional information consult ACE’s Applications Department. Lock nut included with each shock absorber. MAGNUM® Group MA and ML 33 to 64 Adjustable MA and ML 33 to 64 MAGNUM® Group Adjustable
