WARNING
|
Check the operation |
l | Compress the shock absorber manually. When doing so, the shock absorber rod must travel its complete length smoothly and with the same force |
l | When the shock absorber has sufficient gas pressure, the rod returns to its original starting position |
l | If the shock absorber rod does not return to its starting position and there is no oil leakage, then the shock absorber may still be in working order |
