IMPORTANT: Read these service tips before beginning assembly of cylinder gland or piston.
1. Keep seals clean from the time they are removed from package until they are installed.
2. Clean the groove or bore into which the seal is to be fitted before installing the seal.
3. Never touch the seal lip in handling. Always pick up the seal by its outer member.
4. Inspect each seal lip carefully for nicks, scratches, and dirt at time of installation. If dirty use a soft,
clean cloth and carefully wipe off seal. DO NOT wipe seal with fingers, this only imbeds dirt in the
seal.
NEVER clean rubber related seals with a mineral based solvent! Clean rubber seals
in denatured alcohol or non-mineral based solvents only.
NOTE: Seals can be made more pliable and easier to install, if first heated in hydraulic oil to 160°F.
Never use direct heat on any seals.
