5. Position one slider (9) on each side of the piston shaft and insert the slider pin through the
hole in the housing into both sliders and the piston shaft. The fit between the pin and sliders
is an interference fit. Use a brass hammer and drift to set the slider pin below the outer edge
of both sliders or deep enough to prevent the shaft ends from dragging on the housing walls.
NOTICE
In the following step, DO NOT use thread-locking compound on the screw threads.
6. Place the seal insertion tool (22) on the inlet end of the housing.
7. Install the end plug seal (17) in the groove of the end cap (10).
8. Insert the assembled end cap into the housing through the tool with the o-ring end leading
and the threaded inlet hole upward. Push the cap inward beyond the retaining ring groove
and approximately ½" into the cylinder.
9. Remove the seal insertion tool from the housing.
10. Install the retaining rings (8) in the housing grooves at the inlet end of the housing. Install
the rings with the open ends of both rings at the middle of the opening and the beveled side
of the rings toward the end cap.
11. If an air hose is available, inject some air into the threaded opening of the end cap to seat
the retaining rings. If air is not available, temporarily thread one of the swivel sets (20) into
the threaded opening and pull the end cap back against the retaining rings to seat them.
12. For 56573 and 56587 models position the end cover (13) against the housing and after
applying a non-permanent thread-locking compound to the threads, install the end cover
screw (14).
13. Wrap the threads of the swivel sets (20) with teflon tape and thread the swivel with the male
hose coupler (21) into the threaded hole in the end cap.
14. Apply some Marine Moly Grease to the notch in the piston rod and the face of the sliders.
ASSEMBLY OF THE TOOL
1. With the cylinder assembly in one hand and the ratchet link in the other, hook the notch on
the shaft of the piston rod (3) onto the drive pin (4) and bring the two assemblies together.
2. Insert the link pin (12) into the hole in the side plate (1 or 2) until the ball plunger (15) snaps
into the annular groove around the center of the link pin.
