RED Plug

in the pump assembly and replace with the

supplied BLACK plug. This is the reservoir venting system
and damage or inoperability may result if not changed out.

quality thread sealer on both connections


3. Attach an air line fitting for your shop air to other end of

the pump.



4. Push the pump foot pedal to the release position (TOE END) to

relieve all internal pressure.


5. Push the MALE hose end, from the pump, into the FEMALE

Cylinder fitting.

6. Thread the retainer collar hand tight. NOTE: This procedure will insure that the male & female fittings

positively seat against each other, eliminating any possibility of air locking.

this procedure may cause the cylinder to not retract and / or leak.
