MAINTENANCE MANUAL
Maintenance - As Needed
3.6.25. Replacement of engine cover gas struts
• Gas struts are maintenance-free! They require no mainte-
nance such as lubrication. They are designed for the respec-
tive requirements and work trouble-free for many years.
When the gas springs fail to fulfil their function, replace
them for new ones.
Gas springs (2 pcs)
Order number: 1205428
Before you begin replacing the gas struts, secure the en-
gine bonnet against spontaneous fall.
There is a risk of injury!
Removal
• Use a screwdriver to lift the clips.
• Pull the gas strut away from the ball joint.
Installing
• The new gas struts can easily be installed by pressing them
onto the ball joint.
• The clamp must be seated securely afterward.
Gas struts should not be installed if they have been dam-
aged through mechanical manipulation.
Use genuine parts only!
If gas struts are no longer needed, they must be disposed
of in an environmentally appropriate manner.
