STANDARD factory setting is as follows:
Compression: 1 and a half turn from Max (fully closed);
Rebound: 1 turn from Max (fully closed).
Spring preload: 7 turns more from Min. (fully not preloaded).
Every full turn corresponds to 1 mm of spring preload (total
15 mm).

Rebound is on top in the centre of the preload adjuster nuts, Compression is at the bottom by the brake calipers.
Ta for the info. I bought a manual for a fiver on ebay before I bought the bike. I knew you could download parts lists from ebay but didn't know about the manuals.
