The smallest piston/cylinder mounting clearance is the result of the smallest cylinder bore diameter minus the largest piston diam-
eter. The largest piston/cylinder mounting clearance is the result of the largest cylinder bore diameter minus the smallest piston
diameter.

If the end gap is more than the specified value:
–
Check/measure the cylinder. (
»
If the cylinder wear is within the tolerance range:
–
Change the piston ring.
–
Mount the piston ring with the marking facing toward the piston head.
