Torque Specifications
Always clean and dry the threads on the cylinder rod and the piston nut. Do not oil the treads. Use a new piston nut when
available. Always use the correct nut part number shown below. When a nut is reused, thoroughly clean the pre-applied
locking agent from the nut. Apply Loctite® 242 adhesive on the threads.
To determine the proper tightening torque, find the piston part number or thread diameter, shaft diameter and
piston material. Measure the thread diameter to find the nut part number.
When servicing an older cylinder that uses a pre-torque nut, clean the threads and apply Loctite® 242 adhesive.

Place the shaft on the hydraulic press table. Install the
front housing (Item 1) [Figure 20-22-33] over the shaft.
Install the bearing and washer over the shaft. Be sure the
washer is in the correct position so it will slide down the
shaft as the bearing is pressed on. 1
Install the special tool on the bearing and press the

bearing onto the shaft. Apply 4-1/2 tons of pressure to set
the bearing, then release the pressure. Press to 2-1/4
tons and install the split ring. Measure the distance
between the split ring and inner bearing race. That
distance is the amount of shim thickness required.
Remove the split ring and add the measured amount of P0076
shims. Use the special tool to install the split ring.
Position the motor as shown [Figure 20-22-35].
