PARAGRAPH 4

6. Reverse the cylinder in the vise and turn off the upper end fitting.    7. Push gently on the piston rod protruding from the cylinder assembly until it is free of the cylinder. The lower ru'.:jer cup may either come out with the piston rod or remain in the cylinder.    8. Remove the two screws securing the "U" retainer on the bottom of the cylinder and remove the retainer.    9. Remove the lower cylinder nut with a spanner wrench and the lower spring washer and cup from the cylinder.    10. Normally it will not be found necessary to remove the parking spring from the "Housing Complete Assembly" but, if it is desired to remove the spring, proceed as follows:		a. Place a 1 5⁄8, inch or 1½ inch diameter bar approximately 2 inches long on end on the table of an arbor pre" and set the housing assembly, with the slotted guides pointing downward, over the bar. The bar will take the load, when applied, instead of the slender guides-on the housing assembly.    b. Cut a piece of tubing 1½ inch to 1 5⁄8 inch diameter and approximately 3 inches long. Cut two 3/4-inch slots about 1 inch deep opposite each other on one end of the tubing. (See Fig. 60.)    c. Place the slotted tubing on the spring guide with the slots straddling the yoke. Pull the ratchet out to allow the yoke to move down when pressure is applied with the arbor press. Apply enough pressure to deflect the spring until the top face of the spring guide is flush with the bottom of the "window" in the housing through which the yoke extends.
