How does one remove the free lift cylinder ram piston to install new seals?
It is bolt and nut less style.
It has a hole at the bottom of the piston and one on the side.
I tried looking inside the holes and have put a pick or allen key in hoping for a bolt in there somewhere?
There must be a special tool to release it as the piston does turn freely.
The seal is smaller than the other steps and I just can't expand it enough over the larger steps on the piston after heating in hot water.
Looking for help ASAP.
Thanks all.
