27.3  Pressure vessels
Pressure vessels sent for recycling/destruction must have been 
depressurised beforehand and, if possible, opened.
Examples of existing pressure vessels are gas struts and accumulators 
used in hydraulic systems.
27.3.1 Gas struts
WARNING!
Gas struts have extremely high internal pressure. To prevent injury, 
always follow the instructions of the manufacturer.
Wear safety goggles when disassembling struts.
To allow the gas to escape, only open and disassemble gas struts as 
prescribed by the manufacturer. An example of how to perform this is 
given for "Stabilus Lift-O-Mat/Inter-stop":
1: Drill or cut a hole in the cylinders, approximately 20 mm from the 
bottom.
2: Drill or cut a hole in the recess at the piston rod end.
