Quick coupling with snap ring.

Note:

Compress snap ring in direction of arrows only.

Detach locking clip (1) from swinging arm and remove air spring.

Important!

Check roll fold of pneumatic spring.

Only install pneumatic spring with a correctly formed roll fold.

The roll fold is formed when the pneumatic spring is compressed.

Seal off air connection with protective cap. This enables counter-
pressure to build up in air spring while pressing together and roll
fold forms more easily.
