596
.
• Remove the tube
101 while taking care of impact
.
• Remove the seal
113 (change it if necessary)
.
• Inspect the bellows : any impact, scratch or distortion neces-
sitates its replacement.
• Assembly is undertaken in the reverse order of dismantling,
taking care to correctly position the seal
113
and main body
101
.
The screws
111
must be re-mounted with thread locking

torque 100 Nm.
Under preventive maintenance (every 150 millions of
cycles duty), we suggest transmission replacement.
In this case : The transmission delivered is equipped with a
tubular foam protection. We advise leaving this protection
around the bellows until re-mounting of the piston and cylinder.
