DISPOSAL

CAUTION:

Before handling struts filled with gas, be sure to wear goggles to protect eyes from gas, oil and metal shavings.

Do not disassemble the strut damper or throw into flames.

When discarding gas filled struts, drill holes in them to purge the gas.

1. Place the gas-filled strut on a level surface with the piston rod fully extended.

2. Using a 2 — 3 mm (0.079 — 0.12 in) dia. drill, make the holes in areas shown in the figure.
