Check for external leaks at the cover plate joint and fi tting
if the pressure decreases more than 5 psi (0.3 bar) in 10
minutes.
If the external joints are sealed and the leakage is still
more than 5 psi (0.3 bar):
Remove the piston and inspect
the o-ring and housing bore for damage. Repair parts as
necessary.
