4. Surgical Technique
Loosen the shoulder bolt on both ends of the affected
Strut to be changed using the 8 mm/1 mm wrench.
Provide counter-torque.
▲ Precaution:
Do not use the 10 Nm Torque Wrench for loosening
as it may damage the torque wrench. The 10 Nm
Torque Wrench is calibrated for one direction only.
Fully unscrew the shoulder bolts and keep them for
reinstallation.
Using blue strut knob, adjust new strut to match the
removed strut length.
By using the bolts removed from the previous strut,
tighten the new strut in place. With torque wrench,
10 Nm, tighten the shoulder bolt until you feel the wrench
slip, indicating it has reached the appropriate torque.
Ensure that the wrench is fully seated.
