Hello pinkbike community , i have issue with my Manitou Travis 203 TPC+ Air/Coil hybrid 2008? (not sure) it's really heavy to compress , air is set to 50 psi. I stored the fork upside down for 3 months and it probably needs rebuild after that. so does anyone have service manual for my fork ? I would be really glad if anyone can help me out since it's my first DH bike.

50 psi sounds about right for your weight, but if it’s still super stiff even after a few cycles, oil separation is likely.
Try cycling it a few times upside down to get the oil moving, but yeah, a rebuild will make it buttery again.
