Replacing Lung Bladders

If leaking occurs, the chest rise bladders (in the chest cavity) should be replaced.

1 Open the torso skin and put the stomach foam to the side.

2 Open the hinged chest plate upwards, to access the lungs.

3 Remove the chest compression spring for easier access

to the lungs.

4 Unhook the green or yellow Lung Compliance bands

from each side of the lung assembly.

5 Open the hinged lung plate. Pull the old lung out from

its socket.

6 Insert the new lung reversing this procedure.

Note: Ensure that the compliance bands intersect between the two folds of the lung.
