This the right directions?

Looks kinda confusing. Guess you will have to follow the rec settings at the bottom of the instructions and tune from there? Back when these were popular there were a bunch of guys flailing around trying to get them figured-out...

Not sure if you can view threads on KTMTalk but here is one about the settings that worked for guys on KTM's.

dont let number of adjusters psyche you out, only do one adjustment at time until
you are confident in what you are doing thats where people get turned around
and then they don't know up from down, I don't what kind of riding you do if it is rocky
whoops or other here is what I remember from that vintage fork for technical trails
the very center adj. 2-3 clicks in from out, once you find what is best you rarely have adj it
the outer center 3-5 clicks in from out the faster you go the more you going to turn it in
the gold adj (low speed) 1-2 turns out from in or if you can feel the clicks 4-8 from in
you would adj this in if the front end is diving to much during a g out
you would want to adj out if the bike feels tall going into the a turn and not letting the
bike to set
the silver adj. (supple adj.) 0-˝ turn out from in you would adj in if you want little more
hold up in a g- out or out when you more compliance over rocks
there is a possibility that you have the first version of this valve it did not have detents
on the adjusters the function would remain the same, main difference would be the
center outer adj. and its sensitivity to know which one you have turn the center
outer adj in and you should feel a detent every 1/3 of a turn let me know what you think
