tight bottom out knob

[Grantieboy]

hey all
on my fox dhx 5 second hand the bottom out knob is very tight and does not turn when i try to use the knob. but it does turn when i take the knob off and use a spanner to turn the nut thing that the knob sits on. is it normal for it to be this tight? is it easy to fix if so?

cheers

Tight bottom? Out Knob!
Sorry couldn't resist. Yep it is typically quite tight & can't be turned by hand. Usually have to get 4mm allen key into the holes to act as a lever

How much pressure are you running in the boost valve? IIRC the fox manuals say you shouldn't adjust it if you're running more than 125psi (boost)
