9.4.1. Separate Assembled Gas Spring Substances
The H-axis angle must be assembled in the position as shown in [Figure 9.5] to assemble assembled gas spring substances. Assembly is available at this position because a compressive force of the gas spring had been minimized in the position. So the risk factor is minimized during the disassembly process because the compressive force is equilibrated by the spring even if the gas spring assembly is removed from the main body
However, while carrying out separation to dispose of the gas spring or to do internal repair work, if it is impossible to place the H axis at 90° because the H axis does not work, remove the gas completely by following 9.3 Gas Release Procedure
Figure 9.5 Gas spring disassembling posture
Warning ü Posture that must not be allowed in separating the assembly unit of the gas spring: H axis at degrees other than 90˚ (In other postures than H axis at 90˚, the compression pressure of the gas spring will be excessive, meaning that the screw thread will get damaged and the bolts will be ejected at high speed because of the pressure of the gas spring when loosening the bolts of the hinge, causing accidents involving people and damages to equipment.)
