assembly. A flat screwdriver can help locate it correctly.
Use the wooden handle of the hammer to tap the seal
bushing completely in place.

valve on the cylinder is properly installed.
[4] Insert the piston assembly about 1" into the bottom end of
the cylinder.
[5] Push the bumper into the bottom end of the cylinder.
[6] With the head lock loosened, engage the whole assembly
into the tool, with the driving blade engaged thru the
opening of the seal bushing. Depress the safety contact
