Accumulator pistons and springs

REMOVAL

(1) Remove valve body.

(2) Remove accumulator pistons with compressed air (Fig. 82). Apply air through small feed hole next to each piston bore. Catch each piston in a shop towel as it exits bore.

CAUTION: Use only enough air pressure to ease each piston out of the bore. In addition, remove the pistons one at a time and tag the pistons and springs for assembly reference. Do not intermix them.

(3) Remove and discard piston O-ring seals. Then clean pistons and springs with solvent.

INSTALLATION

(1) Inspect pistons, springs and piston bores.

Replace worn damaged pistons. Replace broken, collapsed or distorted springs. Replace case if piston bores are damaged.
