1. Remove oil from the cylinder into a drain pan by
slowly pumping the cylinder shaft (6). Plug both ports
and clean the outside of the lift cylinder.
IMPORTANT: Prevent damage when clamping the
lift cylinder into a vise; clamp on the pivot only. Do
not close vise enough to distort barrel.
2. Mount lift cylinder in a vise so that the shaft end tilts
up slightly. Remove and discard dust seal (12).
3. Rotate head (3) with a spanner wrench and remove
retaining ring as shown in Figure 51.
4. Grasp end of shaft; extract shaft, head, and piston
(8) by carefully twisting and pulling on the shaft.
IMPORTANT: Do not clamp vise jaws against shaft
surface. Protect shaft surface before mounting in
vise.
