G - Replacement of Piston Seals (Models 53 XB/XD/XE)

Step 1 - Replacement of the inner piston

(1) Undo the knurled nut
(A) holding the cylinder end
cap and remove the plunger
assembly (B) from the
cylinder. Remove both
gauges from the plunger
assembly, withdraw the
inner plunger assembly from
the hollow outer plunger
shaft and clean all colourant
from both plunger
assemblies.

(2) Using two pairs of pliers, grip
the inner end of the piston (A) with
one and the piston shaft with the
other. Unscrew the piston (using a
little heat if difficult) and discard.

(3) Apply Loctite 262 to the
internal thread of the piston shaft,
then screw the new piston
assembly in fully. Slide sleeve up
onto the shaft, tighten the piston
with pliers and replace the sleeve
over the piston.
