This is rather time consuming.. once removed you push out the rubber bump stop in the top of the out tube and engage the two teeth by fully compressing it and turning the two tubes in relation to each other. The Spax can be set in minutes. In the US a softer set is needed when driving on concrete type freeway as the car "thumps" at higher settings. For twisty road or track work, a stiff setting is best. Koni's idea of adjustment is more to compensate for wear hence the time-consuming process.
