Assembly
NOTE:
Prior to cylinder assembly, ensure that the proper
cylinder seal kit is used. See your JLG Parts Manual.
NOTE:
Apply a light film of hydraulic oil to all components
prior to assembly.
WHEN INSTALLING NEW “POLY-PAK” TYPE PISTON SEALS,
ENSURE SEALS ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY. REFER TO FIGURE
2-1 FOR CORRECT SEAL ORIENTATION. IMPROPER SEAL
INSTALLATION COULD RESULT IN CYLINDER LEAKAGE AND
IMPROPER CYLINDER OPERATION.
1.
Place a new wiper seal and rod seal into the applica-
ble cylinder head gland grooves.
2.
Carefully install the head gland on the rod, ensuring
that the wiper and rod seals are not damaged or dis-
lodged. Push the head along the rod to the rod end,
as applicable.
3.
Carefully slide the piston spacer on the rod. If appli-
cable, align the oil holes in the rod and the spacer.
Secure the spacer, if applicable.
4.
If applicable, correctly place a new o-ring and back-
up rings in the inner piston diameter groove.
5.
Carefully place the piston on the cylinder rod, ensur-
ing that the o-ring and back-up rings are not dam-
aged or dislodged.
6.
Using suitable protection, clamp the cylinder rod in
a vise or similar holding fixture as close to the piston
as possible.
7.
Push the piston onto the rod until it abuts the spacer
end and install the attaching nut.
IF CYLINDER IS EQUIPPED WITH A PISTON NUT, APPLY “LOC-
QUIC PRIMER T” AND LOCTITE #242 TO PISTON NUT THREADS,
THEN TIGHTEN NUT TO TORQUE SHOWN IN TABLE 2-2.
