Front Shock Absorber: Disposal
DISPOSE OF FRONT SHOCK ABSORBER
Fully extend the front shock absorber rod.
Using a drill, make a hole in the cylinder between A and B as shown in the illustration to discharge the gas inside.

Be careful when drilling because shards of metal may fly about, so always use proper safety equipment.
The gas is colorless, odorless, and non-poisonous.
