This is one of the first twin chamber showa forks. The inner chamber you will fill with oil to about 10-20mm over the ridge to where the base valve inserts. You are essentially filling the chamber up, over filling it somewhat then you will compress the rod to let the extra oil escape out of the chamber. The external chamber you will need to measure the oil level (325-375cc).

If you have the manual it should give the the range of the oil for the outer chamber.

Hope this helps!
