assembly, follow the references given in
the figure, i.e. "A" must line up with "A"
and " B " with "B", otherwise the joint will
remain jammed.
After carrying out the following checks,
refit the parts reversing the procedure for
removal, bearing in mind that the bolts se
curing the two half shells of the damping
weight must first be tightened lightly and
then tightened to a torque of no more than
0.7 daNm.
