Use the following steps to replace the seals in the hydraulic cylinder:
SEE FIGURE 39 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE.
1.
With the selector switch in the SHEAR position and the arms up, turn the machine’s power off at
the disconnect switch and lock it.
2.
Block the arms up, either on the tool table or under the shear arm. SEE ITEM (A).
3.
Remove the hydraulic hoses from the cylinder and allow the oil to drain from the cylinder.
4.
Remove the cylinder clevis pin (D) and swing the cylinder out away from the arm.
5.
The cylinder head (B) is threaded into the cylinder.
6.
Use a pin wrench to unscrew the cylinder head from the cylinder tube.
7.
Place a rod through the cylinder clevis and pull the cylinder apart, using a come-along or similar
device.
8.
Remove the locking nut from the end of the cylinder shaft and slide the piston and head off of the
shaft.

Replace all of the seals. There will be extra seals in the kit. Match up the replacement seals with the
old ones and discard the rest.

nicks.

brass or plastic hammer.
