the outer edge of both Sliders or deep enough to prevent the shaft ends from dragging on the Housing walls.

6.Install the Piston O-ring (17) in the internal groove of the Seal Ring (5).

7.Install the assembled Seal Ring and Piston O-ring on the hub at the large end of the Piston Rod.

8.Install the Piston Seal Plate (4) in the inlet end of the Housing with the side having the countersunk screw holes trailing.

NOTICE

In the following step, DO NOT use thread-locking

compound on the screw threads.

9.Using a hex wrench and an alternating tightening procedure, install the Retaining Screws (11). Tighten each Screw a little at a time to obtain even compression and expansion of the Piston O-ring and Seal Ring.

10.Place the Seal Insertion Tool (20) on the inlet end of the Housing.

11.Install the End Plug Seal (15) in the groove of the End Cap (7)

12.Insert the assembled End Cap into the Housing through the Tool with the O-ring end leading and the threaded inlet hole downward. Push the Cap inward beyond the Retaining Ring groove and approximately ½” into the Cylinder.

13.Remove the Seal Insertion Tool from the Housing.

14.Install the Retaining Rings (8) in the housing grooves at the inlet end of the Housing. Install the Rings with the open ends of both rings at the middle of the opening and the beveled side of the Rings toward the End Cap.

15.If an air hose is available, inject some air into the threaded opening of the End Cap to seat the Retaining Rings. If air is not available, temporarily thread one of the Swivel Sets (18) into the threaded opening and pull the End Cap back against the Retaining Rings to seat them.

16.For TX-2 and TX-4 models position the End Cover (10) against the Housing and after applying a non-permanentthread-locking compound to the threads, install the End Cover Screw (12).

17.Wrap the threads of the Swivel Sets (18) with Teflon tape and thread the swivel with the male hose Coupler (19) into the threaded hole in the End Cap.

18.Apply some Marine Grade Moly Lube to the notch in the Piston Rod and the face of the Sliders.
