AB"STRUT ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
To discard the strut assembly, place the assembly horizontally
with its piston rod extended. Then drill a hole approx. 3 mm
in diameter at the location shown in the illustration and
discharge the gas.
Caution
The gas itself is harmless but it may issue out of the
hole together with chips generated by the drill. Therefore,
be sure to wear goggles.
REASSEMBLY SERVICE POINT
"AASELF-LOCKING NUT INSTALLATION
1. Ensure that the bearing is seated correctly.
2. Install the special tool to the strut assembly same as
its removal.
3. While the coil spring is being compressed by the special
tools, provisionally tighten the self-locking nut.
Caution
Do not use an impact wrench as it will cause the
bolt of the special tool to be seized.
4. Align the hole in the strut assembly lower spring seat
with the hole in the upper spring seat.
NOTE
Using a pipe as shown facilitates the alignment.
5. Correctly align both ends of the coil spring with the grooves
in the spring seat, and then loosen the special tools.
6. Using the special tools, tighten the self-locking nut to the
specified torque.
Specified torque: 60±10 N·m
Caution
To prevent the piston rod lock nut inside the strut
from loosening, do not use an impact wrench when
the self-locking nut is tightened.
7. After tightening self-locking nut, fill the multi purpose
greese to the bearing part of strut insulator.
