CAUTION: If air pressure is used to remove
the secondary piston, place the open end of
the cylinder bore approxim ately 25 mm (1
inch) from a padded workbench or other sur­
face to catch the piston when it comes out of
the bore. Apply low air pressure very careful­
ly to ease the piston out of the bore. Never
point the open end of the bore at anyone
when applying air pressure. The piston may
come out of the bore with considerable force
and cause personal injury.
