Retaining rings have a sharper edged side and a rounder edged side.
Installing retaining rings with the sharper edged side facing the tool
will allow for easier installation and removal.
Guide the retaining ring with your finger to prevent scratching the air
shaft.
Place the tips of the retaining ring pliers into the eyelets of the retaining
ring, then use the pliers to push the seal head into the upper tube while
installing the retaining ring into the groove.
Confirm the retaining ring is properly seated in the retaining ring
groove by using the retaining ring pliers to rotate the retaining ring
and seal head back and forth a few times.
Thread a bottom bolt into the shaft, then firmly pull the air shaft out.
Do not scratch the air spring shaft. Scratches on the air shaft will
allow air to bypass the seal head into the lower leg, resulting in
reduced spring performance.
9 Remove the top cap o-ring and discard it. Apply grease to a new o-ring
and install it.
