How to use our product

Before operating the device, review the user manual to ensure proper setup, safe use, and correct operation.

Whilst we highly recommend doing online / in-person training on the brands you want to work on, for the operation of the Venturi our step-by-step guide is all you need. You find it in the Download section.

Functions of the Vaccuum Bleeder:

  • Setting the system pressure you want to work with, according to service manuals or tuning preferences.
  • Drawing fresh damping oil into the Vacuum Bleeder so it runs in a clean cycle.
  • Generating a vacuum to purge air from the suspension component and degas the damping oil.
  • Filling your suspension component at the correct pressure without wasting a drop of oil.

Finding the service manuals

  • Rockshox
    Just enter your serial number on trailhead and get your manual. We suggest using english versions as translations can somtimes lead to confusion.

  • FOX
    For Fox ists mainly shocks, as most of their forks do not require vacuum bleeding. If you are not sure what model/year your shock is from, goolge the custom tune ID on your component before heading to the link above.
