DISPOSAL
DISCARD SHOCK ABSORBER
Before discarding the shock absorber, drill a hole of 2 - 3 mm
(0.079 - 0.118 in.) in diameter at the location shown in the il-
lustration to discharge the gas inside.
NOTICE:
When drilling, chips may fly out, work carefully.
The gas is colorless, odorless and non-poisonous.

INSPECTION
INSPECT SHOCK ABSORBER
Compress and extend the shock absorber rod and check that
there is no abnormal resistance or unusual operation sounds.
If there is any abnormality, replace the shock absorber with a
new one.
