Always adjust damper settings down a number of clicks from full hard. Full soft may be somewhat indefinite but full hard is always with the valve fully closed so a definite starting point.

I discovered this after querying what seemed to be a strange instruction in a manual and later confirmed it with a damper manufacturer, Quantum, and in discussions with knowledgeable people.

If I recall the number of clicks on the Quantums is 24 plus or minus 1 but they told me that they always have at least 24 clicks but it may run to as much as 26 because of manufacturing tolerances. I imagine that this type of tolerance applies to most manufacturers of dampers. If you think about it you could, in theory have a difference of as much as 2 or 3 clicks between left and right so going up from full soft could have completely different settings between left and right.
