and set aside o'ring (S832) and gasket (745124).
3.
Empty all hydraulic oil into an approved container and dispose of in accordance with all environmental regulations applicable to your area.
4.
Place piston rod wrench (745155) down into top of power cylinder (745331) and into the hex of piston rod assembly (745344).
While holding this piston rod wrench (745155), remove flexlock nut (400559) using a 7/16" socket wrench / adjustable wrench.
Still holding piston rod wrench (745155), remove air piston assembly (744121) using packing plug wrench assembly (704150), by
turning counterclockwise.
5.
When air piston assembly (744121) is completely free from piston rod assembly (745344), tap or push on the piston rod wrench (745155)
to eject air piston assembly (744121) from bottom of handle assembly (744129).
6.
After removal of air piston assembly (744121), slide piston rod assembly (745344) back up to the end of its travel. Using packing
plug wrench assembly (704150), remove packing plug (744118).
7.
With packing plug (744118) removed, power cylinder (745331) can be removed by pushing on power cylinder tool assembly (704151)

5.
With the piston rod in the down position, fill oil passage on top of handle assembly (744129) with automatic transmission oil, Dexron® III or
equivalent. When looking at top of handle assembly (744129) the oil passage is the hole that has a counterbore for (S832) o'ring.
6.
Replace gasket (745124) and o'ring (S832), just prior to replacing head cylinder (745366). Torque all screws to manual specifications. (See
Filling & Bleeding procedures pgs. 11
