NOTE:
  • Before replacement, press the height control OFF switch to stop the vehicle height control operation.
  • Be careful that the vehicle body lowers because the air in the pneumatic cylinder is discharged by disconnecting the pneumatic cylinder side air tube of the height control valve.
  • This operation takes out the air from the front shock absorber, therefore never rotate the lower part of the absorber by turning the steering wheel etc..
