Torsion Bar Bearing, Removing And Installing: Removing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
CAUTION:

Move the front seat to the highest position. This reduces the spring force when removing and installing the torsion bar and the risk of damaging the threaded connections between the seat pan upper and lower frames.

WARNING:

The torsion bar exhibits considerable spring force. Always follow the points below to avoid accidents:

  • Always remove and install the torsion bar in the sequence described and only using the tools specified.
  • Never use pliers and other levers.
  • Do not stand directly in front of the torsion bar when removing and installing it. Stand off to the side.

-- Remove torsion bar. Refer to TORSION BAR, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .

-- Remove both of the bracket halves -1- from the guide -2-.
