7.Use an open-end wrench to remove all hex nuts connecting the piston rod to the drive block.

8.Remove the four screws that attach the cylinder rod end block to the frame. Access the screws through the four holes in the blind end block using a long allen wrench.

9.Partially remove the air cylinder by pulling on the cylinder from the back of the machine until the air lines at the elbow fittings can be seen.

10.With the cylinder partially removed, disconnect the airlines at the air cylinder elbow fittings.

11.Finish removing the air cylinder.

12.On a bench, disassemble the air cylinder by remov- ing the four long screws that connect the two cylin- der blocks.

Clean and Inspect the Parts

13.Inspect the cylinder tube and piston for scratches. Replace if necessary.

14.Using a clean, dry cloth, remove any grease from the inside of the tube, the outside of the piston, and the cylinder rod.

15.Remove the two cylinder block o-rings from the blocks and replace.

16.Remove the piston o-ring and replace.

17.Remove the cylinder rod from the rod end block.

18.Remove the rod o-ring from the rod end block and replace.

19.Liberally apply high temperature lubricant grease (part 115982) to the inside of the tube, the outside of the piston, all the o-rings, and the cylinder rod.

Re-Assemble the Air Cylinder

NOTICE

In the following step, the long screws must be tight- ened in a crisscross pattern. Failure to do so may result in air cylinder damage.
