5. OPERATION WARNING! DO NOT compress the spring to an extent where the coil windings touch, fig.2.A. WARNING! DO NOT compress the spring to an extent where the jaws touch fig.2.B.

5.1. Ensure the jaws and the body of the compressor are correctly aligned at all times during spring compression fig.3.A. For conical springs, the centre line of the spring should remain parallel to the compressor body, fig.3.B.

5.2. If necessary use the extension block as in fig.4 to keep the spring and compressor body parallel. 5.3. Secure the strut with a clamp, vice or other adequate holding device. 5.4. TO COMPRESS A STRUT REMOVED FROM A VEHICLE 5.4.1. Mount the selected jaws on the compressor body, fit the retaining bolts and tighten securely. 5.4.2. Rotate the hexagonal nut, using air or hand tools to drive the jaws apart to the length of the spring and to allow compression of as many

windings as possible. 5.4.3. Place the spring strut compressor onto the spring, ensuring the spring seats correctly, fig.1.B., between the safety lips, fig.1.6. and the

outer rib fig.1.7. and cannot slide out during compression. 5.4.4. Ensure the jaws and body are correctly aligned, fig.3 / 4. 5.4.5. Rotate the hexagonal nut, using air or hand tools and compress the spring until the upper support bearing is free and the spring will

rotate. 5.5. TO DECOMPRESS A STRUT REMOVED FROM A VEHICLE 5.5.1. To decompress the spring, reverse the compress procedure.
