Note:

As much as possible, avoid touching the stroke portions of the rod to prevent foreign matter from attaching to them. Be sure to hold the cylinders while servicing.
Do not wear cotton gloves or other similar materials when handling the rod. Fibers may attach to the rod and result in gas leaks.
Do not apply any load to the cylinders in the horizontal direction in order to prevent the rod from being deformed.

Tip:

Use the same procedures for the RH side and LH side.
The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
