8 With the roof frame upright, unbolt the strap retaining brackets.

10 Disconnect the gas struts.
11 Lower the front of the roof then unscrew the three mounting bolts on each side.

Refitting
13 Refitting is a reversal of removal, but do
not tighten the mounting bolts or tensioning
block nuts until the front of the roof is locked
and the rear beading is in the rail (see
illustration). It may be necessary to use a
tamping tool to ensure that the tensioning
cable is fully inserted in the rail. A little sealant
should be applied at the points where the
cable passes through the covering.
