3.1. REMOVING A BUSH. (Figs 2 & 3)
3.1.1. screw the nut with washer attached (d) onto the short threaded portion of threaded rod (G). slide the pushing cup (c) onto
the threaded rod in the orientation shown above in fig.2.
3.1.2. Push the threaded rod through the centre of the bush to be removed until the pushing cup bears against the bush.
3.1.3. Hold the assembly in place and slide the large static cup (A) onto the rod until it bears against the surface of the suspension
arm as shown above in fig.2.
3.1.4. slide washer (e) onto the rod and retain the whole assembly by screwing the nut with washer (f) onto the threaded rod.
3.1.5. Hold nut d with a spanner and then place a second spanner over the nut with washer attached (f). this should preferably be a
ratchet ring spanner for ease of use and maximum accessability. As the nut is turned extraction will commence as indicated in
fig.3. some considerable pressure may need to be applied to initiate the first movement of the bush. As the bush leaves the
suspension arm ensure that the assembly is supported as it is likely to fall away from the suspension arm once the bush
becomes loose.
3.1.6. disassemble the extractor and dispose of the old bush in compliance with local authority waste disposal requirements.
