is exposed at the hydraulic cylinder<br />
opening in the end plate.<br />
6. Compress the push rod pin retaining<br />
spring (on the hydraulic piston),<br />
remove the retainer pin, and<br />
remove the hydraulic piston from<br />
the push rod. Disassemble the hydraulic<br />
piston.<br />
7. Remove the booster assembly<br />
from the arbor press.<br />
8. Hold the end cap in a vise,<br />
and remove the hydraulic cylinder<br />
from the end cap (Fig. 39). Remove<br />

13. Fabricate 2 assembly rings<br />
from an old cylinder. Place an assembly<br />
ring over the front piston,<br />
and remove the nut securing the<br />
front piston to the piston rod. Then,<br />
remove the piston rod nut, push rod<br />
retainer pin, and the push rod. Remove<br />
the front piston assembly, but<br />
keep the piston parts assembled in<br />
the assembly ring.<br />
14. Disassemble the rear piston<br />
by pressing down on the return<br />
spring. Then, remove the rod, center<br />
plate, and return spring from the<br />
piston rod (Fig. 42).<br />
15. Remove the nut from the rear<br />
piston end of the piston rod, and<br />
carefully remove the retainer plate,<br />
wick retainer, wick, 2 piston plates,<br />
and leather packing.<br />
16. Remove the rubber seal ring<br />
from the threads of the piston rod.<br />
17. Remove the vacuum tubes<br />
and tee fitting from the center plate.<br />
18. Position the plate on a flat<br />
surface. Remove the fast application<br />
valve cover (Fig. 43).<br />
