Check/Adjust
1. Check the gaps around the hood. The gaps must be uniform along the entire perimeter of the fit to the body elements.
- A - 5.5±0.5 mm
- B - 5.5±0.5 mm
- C - 3.5±0.5 mm
- D - 4.0±0.5 mm
- E - 1.5±0.5 mm
- F - 1.5±0.5 mm
- G - 2.5±0.5 mm
2. Slightly loosen the nut (4), refer to the illustration at the beginning of the section.
3. Close the hood and expose it over the wings. Adjust the position of the hood.
4. Carefully open the exposed hood so as not to move it.
5. Torque tighten the hinge nuts 21 Nm.
6. Loosen the 4 mounting bolts so that the lock can be displaced (1).
7. Adjust the hood by shifting the lock in height. Tighten the lock bolts to torque 14Nm.
8. Adjust the height of the hood in relation to the fenders. To do this, screw the front stops (1) And (2) at the hood. By turning out the stops, adjust the height of the hood in relation to the wings. Put some plasticine between the hood and fenders and check if the stops make contact with the front panel when the hood is closed. When the hood is closed, the stops must rest against the front panel.
Disposal of the gas-filled stop
Caution: If the gas-filled strut is replaced, the old strut must be degassed.
1. To do this, clamp the stop in a vise in the area indicated in the accompanying illustration (x = 50 mm).
Caution: Be sure to clamp the stop only in the indicated area, otherwise there is a danger of an accident! Then file the cylinder at a distance of one third of the total length from the base mark on the rod side. Cover the cut area with a cloth to protect against oil escaping. Also, wear protective goggles when sawing.
