Try this, looks like a complete service guide for your forks.

Looks like they've got full service instructions for all forks here. Have a look around the site, I found a full service guide and a simple dust wiper and oil change for my Talas RL forks as well.

Loads of photos and lots of links to techy stuff like torque settings and oil volumes etc. Word of warning, I think some of this is quite techincal stuff requiring special tools etc. I'm toying with the idea of servicing my forks but might just stump up the cash to get them done properly. It's not the stripping and cleaning that worries me (I've built up several bikes from scratch and serviced more simple elastomer type forks in the past), more the subtle adjustments and setup required after putting them back together.
