NOTE
Cover your eyes with safety goggles during this work!
Mount the piston with the locking pin of the piston ring facing the intake port.
NOTE
The piston pin is fixed in the piston with two circlips (left and right).
ATTENTION
Always use new circlips. Used or previously installed circlips have too little tan-
gential tension, and they may twist and work their way out of the groove in the
piston.
NOTE
For easier installation we recommend installing one circlip before installing the
piston.
