Refer to 

Figure R-6

 during the 

following procedure. Place the 
piston assembly on a flat, stable 
surface with the shaft pointing 
up. Slide the installation tool 
(provided in the 

RSK

) over the 

piston shaft with the wide end 
down. Lubricate the new PIP 
ring, cup seal and the 
installation tool with silicone 
grease. With the grooved side 
facing up, slide the PIP ring 
down the installation tool and 
onto the piston. Repeat this 
process for the cup seal. Note that the grooved side 
of the cup seal should be facing down; i.e., the 
grooved sides of the PIP ring and the cup seal 
should be facing each other. When finished with 
the installation, remove the installation tool from the 
piston shaft.  

3.

  Lightly lubricate the cylinder in the pump body with 

silicone grease. Slide the finished piston assembly, 
shaft first, into the pump body from the side of the 
pump body that faces the check valve plate. Install 
the large o-ring (8012588) into its groove in the 
pump back plate and lower the pump back plate 
over the piston shaft. The side of the back plate 
with the large o-ring should be facing the pump 
body. See 

Figure R-7

4.

 Refer 

to 

Figure R-4

. Slide one of the white backup washers over the piston shaft and press it 

into its bore in the pump back plate. Next, slide one of the two black rubber piston shaft seals 
over the piston shaft and work it into the bore on top of the backup washer. Note that the 
shaft seals are flared out on one side. It is important that the flared (wider) side should be 
down, facing the shaft bore. Install the second piston shaft seal in exactly the same way. It too 
should be installed with its flared side facing down. Next, install the second white backup 
washer and, finally, the white bushing. Slide the installation tool (used in Step 2 above) over 
the piston shaft with the narrow end facing the white bushing. Use the installation tool to 
press the shaft washers, seals and bushing all the way into the bore. When finished, the 
outside end of the bushing should be flush with the bore opening. 

5.

  Install a new wiper block seal into the wiper block. The seal must be pressed into a groove 

inside the bore in the middle of the wiper block with the narrower side of the seal facing 
outwards. Form the seal into an oval shape by squeezing it between your fingers and press 
one side of the seal into the groove in the wiper block. Once an edge of the seal is started 
into the groove, carefully work the rest of the seal into place. After the seal has been 
installed, slide the spacer (if present) and wiper block onto the piston shaft. The side of the 
wiper block from which the seal was installed should be facing outward.  Refer to 

Figure R-3

6.

  Prepare the check valve plate for reassembly by installing the new poppet valves. Note that 

both the intake and reject poppet valves and valve springs are identical. Refer to 

Figure R-5
