Mounting Lockout 

1.  Mark clip shaft to ensure proper alignment when re-

assembling. 

2.  Remove clip and retract cylinder. 

3.  Thread lockout collar onto the shaft above the clip. 

Position the collar about halfway between the mark 

and the bottom of the clip shaft. (Make sure lockout 

collar is positioned such that tapped hole for spring 

plunger is lined up with slot in clip shaft in neutral po-

sition.) 

4.  Start the lockout bolts into the tapped holes in the 

cylinder head and in the leg, but do not tighten the 

bolts.  

5.  Reattach the clip and stroke the valve to the fully 

open and closed positions two times. 

6.  Stroke the valve to the fully opened position and ad-

just the open position bolts. Mark the threads on the 

lockout bolts and apply a coat of Loctite 242 to the 

threads and thread the bolts back in the holes until 

the marks are in position.   

7.  Turn the lockout collar to the locked position. 

Ensure that the lockout collar is fully engaged 

with the lockout bolts. See Figure 2

apply a coat of Loctite 242 to the threads 

and thread the bolts back in the holes until the marks are in position 

10.Turn the lockout collar to the locked position. Ensure that the lockout collar is fully engaged with the 

lockout bolts. See Figure 2

11.Turn the lockout collar to the neutral position and stroke the valve to the fully open and closed posi-

tions to ensure the lockout collar does not interfere with the lockout bolts. See Figure 2

12.Place spring plunger into lockout collar. 

Note: 

Make sure lockout is positioned such that spring plunger is lined up with slot in clip shaft. 

 

Tighten spring plunger to clip shaft. Back off spring plunger 1/8 of a turn. Turn lockout collar to the 

locked position and then back to neutral position several times. Make sure lockout collar “snaps” into 

place when turning it to the neutral position. Stake the spring plunger into place.
