Would ask you dealer to go through the set up for this fork. Also, have you checked Suntour's site for manuals

For controls only being on one side of the fork, this is normally the same for all forks, especally budget ones, Lockout is only ever on one side, you lock out one side of the fork, this will also also affect the other.
