D-Spec tuning instructions?

I just got some D-Specs, but don't have the instructions and tips on how to set them? Does anyone have an extra copy, or electronic copy I can have? Thanks.

They instructions are worthless. At the top of each shock/strut, there's a cap. Unscrew the cap off and take the supplied key and close the valve, i.e, turn clockwise until it stops, full hard. Then, for every counterclockwise full turn, you've opened it one full turn. You can go up to 7
turns, full soft. Now depending on your driving conditions, set to your satisfaction. I run mine 3 upfront and 3.5 in the rear since my roads are fairly decent. The roads sucked where I used to live, so I was at 5 and 6. Now, when I go on long trips, I set them to 6 on all four corners to have a comfortable ride. It's all on how you want your ride to feel, that's why they're so great. Hope this helps...

I think Tokico recommends starting at 5 turns from full hard which is pretty close to how the stock shocks ride. I'd say 1/4 turn is probably the smallest increment that will make a noticeable change.
