The attachment for the joystick box is screwed underneath the armrest tube (6) together
with the lateral trunk support attachment (11).
The gas pressure spring unlatching unit is fixed to the armrest tube (6) with two clamps
and an additional attachment.

with trunk support attachment (11), circular washers (12) and armrest padding (1) from the
armrest tube (6).
•
Push the trunk support cover (7) back a little so that the screws (9) can be reached, and
loosen the screws with a Phillips screwdriver so that the trunk support padding (13) can be
separated from the attachment (11).

•
Reassembly takes place in the reverse order.
Caution:
The self-locking nuts (15 ) must be replaced every time.
When reassembling the locking washer (3) and the armrest tube (6), do not completely
tighten screws (5) because the armrest tilt must be adjusted after reassembles
completed.
Only tighten the nuts (15) enough so that the armrests can be tilted.
If clamps or fixings for BUS cables or Bowden cables were present on the armrest tube
(6) or on the lateral trunk support attachment (11), fit these again.
