How do you open the front of the Mercedes Atego 2426?

Model: Mercedes Atego MK 2 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Body

In this video, we will see how to open the front of the Mercedes Atego 2426: it is a medium-heavy truck designed for urban transport and medium distances, a leader in Latin America and known for its high resale value. As we can see, to open its front, which is not held by any particular lock, it is enough to pull outward on both sides of the hood located above the vehicle's radiator. This will then remain open with the help of two metal struts, quite similar to those found in cars, having the same mechanism and needing to be fitted into specific grooves. From here, we can access all the engine parts that may be useful to the user.
