PARTS NEEDED

Part Number | Description |
| 1 | 1944283 | SPRING AIR-KIT |
ACTION REQUIRED
Show/hide table
| A first inspection of the clamp is recommended by pulling down the suspension protection. If the clamp is not horizontal and/or if the seat drifts down because the air spring leaks, install a new 194-4283 Air Spring Kit in place of the former 194-4283 Air Spring Kit. Rotate the clamp in order to make sure that the clamp is positioned correctly. The screw for the clamp must be horizontal and above the air spring. Do not remove the clamp. The clamp secures the wires. Loose wires could potentially be cut during the movement of the seat. The illustrations show a damaged air spring and the correct position of the clamp. |
