18. Secure the swivel cap(30) in a vise, using either the "Jaws Gripmaster,"
or with a vise mounting tool installed in one of the LP
ports. Ensure that the piston cap is facing up.
19. Mate a c" (8mm) hex key through the open piston cap and
into the hex of the swivel retainer(24). (See. Fig. 9.) Turn the
swivel retainer counter-clockwise to loosen and remove, and
lift the piston cap off the swivel cap.
20. Remove the swivel retainer from the piston cap, along with the
swivel washer(27). Examine the condition of the washer, and
reuse or replace it as needed.
21. Remove and discard both O-rings(27&28) from the swivel cap,
and automatically discard them regardless of their condition.
22. Using a smooth plastic or brass probe, remove the rubber collar(26)
from the piston cap. Examine the ring to determine its
condition, and replace with new as needed.
23. Under strong lighting, closely inspect the inner bore and all
sealing surfaces of the first stage body with a magnifier, including
the intermediate and high pressure ports, and the inlet
port. Check to ensure there are no scratches or other damage
that could contribute to leakage. If damage is found that is
determined to cause irreparable leakage, it will be necessary to
discard the first stage body and replace it with new.
