Hyd Cyl retaining wire

[Nat]

I would bet that the end of the cyl has 2 holes for a spanner wrench. Just turn the end cap and the wire will spin out. That is the way you have to take the cyl's apart on my Terramite

I bookmarked your site AK, I hope you don't mind it I link to it? Some of those pictures sure save a lot of typing (pecking in my case!)

I am inclined to agree with Nat. Just twist the top in a clockwise direction, and the pin should self feed out of the cylinder, unless the lip is broken on the pin.

Does the driver stay in the truck? What a ride!

No driver operates the hoist, but he have to secure his coffee cup....lol...

Thats ok with me....I am just looking for a software that can preview the files automatically...that would make it easier to manage...
If I would like to have it "secret", I would have it lock behind a password....LOL

You know I got tired of uploading to forums so this is much easier...not warranty though...hahaha

Lay the cyl on your shop table, fixture the capped side clevis in a vise, turn the nut with a pipe wrench or a chain wrench, usually the nut turns real easy....

Thanks guys. The only problem is there is nothing for me to grab onto to spin the cap. No holes for a spanner wrench and no flats to grab with a wrench.

Use a chain wrench or pipe wrench.

You might have to help the ring out to get it started....use a firm narrow tool....stick it in under the ring and bend the ring out a little while turning the cap...

If you brake the "hook" on the inside end of the ring.... it can get hard to get it out....then the cap will spin around without feeding the ring out....

Did one just like that last week at work. No wrench needed.

Small pick to pull the bent end outa the slot and twisted the cap by hand.

Piece-O-cake.
