4. Push both piston seals onto the piston body.
Note
Ensure that the trunnion in the piston seal is correctly seated in the slot in
the piston body.
5. Insert the cushioning ring, piston seal and O-ring into the front and rear end
cap module.
The
D2
variant does not have an O-ring.
Note
Do not bend or compress the sealing band during assembly as this may
damage or tear it and reduce its service life. The sealing band must be
inserted into the piston underneath the diverter.
6. Insert the sealing band into the piston module with the wider side of the
sealing band facing downwards.
The overhang of the sealing band should be about the same on both sides of
the piston.
Note
Observe the mounting direction of the piston module. The magnets face the
front connection cap, i.e. the connection cap
without
the Festo logo.
7. Insert the piston module into the cylinder barrel.
8. Insert the cover strip into the piston module with the two rounded edges
facing downward toward the sealing band.
9. Pull the cover strip to the left until the thrust piece, spring and end cap can
be installed.
10. Repeat this assembly step on the other end of the piston module.
