The first pocket of the service tool is used for removing the shaft

bushing in the air piston.

1. Thread a 7/16-14 UNC closed-end hole tap into the bushing

ensuring that the tap is only installed into the bushing and not into

the piston body.

2. Drop the piston with the tap installed into the first pocket on the

plate so the piston nests on the plate. Use a light hammer and

punch to tap the bushing out from the top. Clean metal shavings

from tool before using the other functions.

The second section of the service tool is used to press in

the new shaft bushing into the air piston. Place parts in

the second pocket on the plate in the order shown and

tighten the shoulder screw until the bushing is fully

installed into the piston.

The third pocket on the service tool can be used to hold

the shaft assembly.
