ZH CONVERTIBLE TOP 23 - 491
HYDRAULIC CYLINDER
DESCRIPTION
The Hydraulic Cylinders used for the Convertible Top application are double acting rod and base style cylinders. The
base side (10) of the cylinder is formed within the aluminum housing on a floating clevis. The base end is sealed
with an O-ring type seal to retain hydraulic pressure. The rod side (6) of the cylinder has an opening for the rod (5)
to pass through, and is sealed with an O-ring type seal. The rod (5) has a formed steel clevis end, and is activated
with hydraulic pressure filling cavity (8). Hydraulic pressure forces the piston (9) to move the rod (5) to the desired
position.
Main Bow Cylinders
The Main Bow Hydraulic Cylinders are used to control the movement of the main bow of the Convertible Top. The
cylinders are pressurized with oil from the hydraulic pump assembly through the hydraulic lines (1) and (4). The
Main Bow Cylinders have travel sensors (2) and (3) mounted on both the rod side (6) and the base side (10) of the
cylinder.
Rear Bow Cylinders
The Rear Bow Hydraulic Cylinders are used to control the movement of the rear bow of the Convertible Top. The
cylinders are pressurized with oil from the hydraulic pump assembly through the hydraulic lines (1) and (4). The
Rear Bow Cylinders have travel sensors (2) and (3) mounted on both the rod side (6) and the base side (10) of the
cylinder.
Tonneau Cover Cylinder
The Tonneau Cover Hydraulic Cylinder is used to control the movement of the Tonneau Cover. The cylinder is pres-
surized with oil from the hydraulic pump assembly through the hydraulic lines (1) and (4). The Tonneau Cover Cyl-
inder has only one travel sensor mounted on the rod side (6) of the cylinder.
