Before pressing the rubber-metal hinge 2, it is abundantly lubricated with a 30-35% aqueous solution of saponifying liquid1 or IGP-30 oil of the hinge socket and its outer surface, while observing precautions to prevent damage to the hinge during pressing (the appearance of scoring, cracks or ruptures of rubber). After pressing the hinge, make sure that it is symmetrically located in the socket and does not have places drawn into the socket or bulging out of it. After the hinge is pressed in and before the start of operation of the vehicle, a time delay of at least 24 hours must be given.
Pressing out worn, damaged or destroyed rubber hinges of the stabilizer struts is carried out on the press with the indicated mandrels in the same way.
