FSA Pig DH Pro Help

Ive just got an FSA Pig DH Pro headset and im a bit confused on assembeling it.
The parts it came with were: 2 bearings (1 big, 1 small), 2 Cups (Large lower cup and smaller top cup), The top cover of the top cup, a golden ring with a slit in it, and a large silver ring.
Can someone who has this headset please help me with it.
Plus the bearings are currently quite slow should i re lube them or anything or lube the cups?

Okay you need the put the larger silver ring( the crown race) on your fork. You have to remove the little ring that is already on your fork and then hammer on the new crown race. then you have to put your fsa pig cups in the headtube by removing the old cups and pressing or hammering in the fsa cups. then put the big bearing in the bottom cup and the smaller bearing in the top cup and slide in your fork. Then but the gold ring (compression ring) over the top of the fork and push down until it makes the fork snug inside the bearings then put the top cap on. If you are riding a threaded fork then put the large nut on.

And about the bearings. It is because it is sealed and hasnt been worn in yet. just use it for a week or two and it will get much faster.
