È SERVICING AIR CYLINDERS
This is the general procedure for rebuilding an air cylinder using a Milnor
®
furnished repair kit, once the air
cylinder has been removed from the machine. See the specific air cylinder and major assembly parts drawing(s) for component identification and removal/replacement information.
Maintenance procedures require:
•
Two threaded rods and nuts, twice the length of the tie bolts.
•
The appropriate repair kit.

☞
Follow maintenance instructions carefully.

Wear eye protection.
NOTE
: Use a new locknut when re-assembling air cylinder (see the appropriate parts drawing).
1.
Replace two diagonally opposite tie bolts with threaded rods and nuts as shown in FIGURE 1.
2.
Tighten nuts on the threaded rods until they contact the air cylinder.
3.
Remove the other two tie bolts and the nuts, washers, clips, and actuators from the external end
of piston stem.
4.
Loosen nuts on threaded rods evenly, permitting cylinder heads to separate. Use only a few turns
on
one
nut
before moving to the other one. Continue until springs have no tension.
5.
Note position and orientation of piston cup(s), washers, and springs. Replace worn parts, then r
eassemble
in
reverse order. Tighten locknut until it is just barely possible to turn the piston cup and washer assembly on the stem. Correct piston cup shape is shown in FIGURE 2.
DO NOT
overtighten, as this causes the piston
cup to deform to the shape shown in FIGURE 3 and may cause piston to bind in cylinder.
