Tighten a hose clamp around the rod guide's internal snap ring, and then loosen it a little. Tighten the piston nut to its specified torque. Lock wire-type cylinders do not use an external snap ring. Place the rod end back into a soft-jawed vice and install the external snap ring, rod guide, piston and nut. Install new seals and rings on the rod guide. Waiting eight hours after installing the cap seal onto the piston will also allow the piston to shrink. Protect the seal by placing a shim between the screw portion of the clamp and the cap seal. Tighten a hose clamp around the piston to shrink the cap seal if it is loose or if it will turn on the piston. If the cap seal is stiff and difficult to install, soak the cap seal in hot water for five minutes to make it more flexible. The cap seal will probably be the last seal to install on any John Deere cylinder piston. Different cylinders may have different seal configurations, so install the new seals in the same configuration as the old seals were installed. Smooth any rough areas with an emery cloth, and replace any parts with deep gouges.Ĭlean the inside of the barrel and dry it with compressed air. Inspect the piston, rod guide, piston rod and inside of the cylinder for nicks and scratches. Remove and discard the filler ring from the snap ring groove. Remove all the seals and rings from the piston and the rod guide. Unscrew the piston nut, and remove the piston and rod guide. – Steel Wire for the armour protecting the insulating layers beneath.Pull the rod end from the cylinder barrel and secure it in a soft-jawed vise. – PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) for the bedding and sheathing – Cross-Linked Polyethylene for the Insulation – Plain Annealed Stranded Copper for the cores This cable is commonly identified by the following construction plain annealed stranded copper for the cores/conductors, polyvinyl chloride for the bedding and sheathing, cross-linked polyethylene for the insulation, with a steel wire armour protecting the layers beneath.Īlthough this cable is suitable for powering smaller, more domestic installations such as powering an outdoor shed or house as well as garden/water features, it is most commonly found within more industrial practices, as mentioned previously.Ģ40mm 4 Core Armoured Cable is constructed from the following materials It is also commonly found within powered networks such as within power stations and factories, etc. 240mm 4 Core Armoured Cable is a variant of steel wire armoured cable used for industrial electrical applications as well as being suitable for direct burial to carry mains electricity to various powered devices.
