TO REPLACE THE CYLINDER
1. Put a drop of oil on the bearings and remount the cylinder. Tighten all nuts
Securely.
2. Reattach the air hose. Tighten the nut finger-tight, plus one-quarter turn. Plug in
the quick-disconnect and check for air leaks. If the fitting leaks, tighten the nut
another one-quarter turn. If the leak persists, replace the nut.
CYLINDER SERVICING
-NOTICE-
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE CYLINDER ROD AND BORE ARE NOT
SCRATCHED OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY. DAMAGED CYLINDER RODS AND
BORES ARE AREAS FOR POSSIBLE AIR LEAKS.
TOOLS REQUIRED: 11/16" wrench or socket, internal snap ring pliers, rag and
MT-55 light grease.
1. Using the 11/16" wrench, carefully remove the muffler from the end housing of
the cylinder.
2. Clamp the tang of the cylinder in a vise or have someone hold the cylinder. If the
ends of the snap ring are not visible; the end housing must be rotated until both
ends are visible through the cut-out.
3. Pull the rod out 2/3 to 3/4 of the way. Squeeze the snap ring with snap ring pliers
and pull on the rod to "tap" the end housing out of the cylinder (see Figure 7).
