REAR SHOCK ABSORBER
4-72
CHAS
WARNING
This shock absorber contains high-pressure
nitrogen gas. Read the following information
carefully before handling it. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for any damage or
injury that may result from improper handling.
•
Never tamper with or attempt to open the
cylinder or the tank.
•
Never expose the shock absorber to a
naked flame or other source of heat. This
might cause the pressurised gas to
explode.
•
Do not deform or damage the cylinder in
any way. Damage to the cylinder would
impair the damping effect.
•
Be careful not to scratch the surface of the
rod: this would cause the oil to leak.
•
Before disposing of the shock absorber,
read the section “NOTES ON DISPOSAL”.

Before neutralising the rear shock absorber:
The gas pressure must be discharged before dis-
posing of the shock absorber it is necessary to dis-
charge the gas pressure. To do this, bore a hole of
2~3 mm through the cylinder wall about 15~20
mm from the bottom of the gas chamber.
WARNING
Wear protective goggles to avoid eye injuries
from escaping gas and/or metal chips.
