Aid of helper required.

7

Carry out test procedure on further cylinders in the same way.

8

Compare measurement values with permissible values.

Installation tolerance or new value of compression pressure

*BE01.00-P-1001-01B

Compression pressure, permissible difference between the cylinders

*BE01.00-P-1002-01B

Wear limit or limit value of compression pressure

*BE01.00-P-1003-01B

If the minimum compression pressure is not reached or if the permissible difference between the individual cylinders is exceeded,

Check cylinder leakage.
