8. Turn the tensioning pulley to the right
until the holes in the push rod line up with
those in the tensioner casing. Use an 8 mm
hex key. Hold the push rod by inserting
a locking pin with a diameter of 2 mm
through the hole in the tensioner casing.
(ig. 8)
Note:
Always insert the hex key completely into
the hex socket of the tensioning pulley to
ensure that the power is transmitted over
a large area when turning the tensioning
pulley against the piston of the damper.
If this is not the case, then the tension
pulley eccentric may break or crack.
We recommend being patient when
pushing the piston rod into the damper
casing by turning the tensioning pulley.
The piston takes some time to push out
the oil in the damper.
