How should one safely drain oil from gas charged shock absorbers on Cadillac DeVille?

The snap ring inside the shock absorber tube must not be removed because high-pressure gas within it poses serious injury risks through explosive expansion. Wear safety glasses during centerpunching and drilling of shock absorbers while ensuring the tube remains unharmed. Start the procedure by punching a 10 mm (0.4 inch) indentation from the bottom edge of the tube with the provided centerpunch. Set the shock absorber inside a vise with the extended rod position at the top of the device. Drill a hole at the centerpunch by using a 5 mm (3/16 inch) drill bit which will release gas or gas/oil mixture through the opening; shop towels should be placed below to catch the escaping oil. The middle of the tube receives an indentation with a centerpunch before a second hole gets drilled there at 5 mm (3/16 inch) using the same drill bit while shop towels cover the escaping oil. Holding the shock absorber horizontally over a drain pan while keeping the holes facing down you should move the rod in and out of the tube to accomplish complete oil drainage from the shock absorber.
