Ensuring Smooth Vertical Travel

If you notice that the vertical travel of Odometry V2 is not smooth, you may take the following steps to troubleshoot. If you notice a bushing slip out of the part, this is related to this issue, simply press the bushing back in and resolve the issue as outlined below.

Check run in

If the pod has not been in use yet, and you notice the travel is not smooth, it may require a few repetitions of compression and extension to run in the bushings and standoffs. Simply compress and release the pod until you notice an increase in smoothness, this process should be fairly quick.

Check standoff bolts

If the issue persists, there may be a small misalignment in a standoff bolt. To resolve this issue, the bolt identified in the image below should be loosened approximately 1/8th of a turn.

If adjusting this bolt, be sure to add some medium strength threadlocker (eg. Loctite 243) to ensure the rigidity of the assembly.

If issues persist, please contact us at info@optii.com.au.
