Alex, their job is to minimise the sound of the fork springs hitting the stanchions, the position is not critical to the operation of the forks. As a rule of thumb put the lower one just above the oil seal on full compression, the upper one just below the lower yoke and the middle one in the middle of those two (were you ahead of me with that one?).

Have a look here for your wiring diagram it may be some use: http://archives.jampot.dk/Book/Workshop ... 5-1965.pdf
