Repair Instructions

CAUTION!

The magnets used in the Ultran product line are of an extremely high

strength and brittle material. Caution should be used in handling these

magnets.
If the magnets are cracked due to impact fractures during the repair

process, they will repel each other and fly apart.
During the repair of the product, be sure your fingers do not get between

the piston and the carriage. The magnets on both these parts will attract

each other and could cause injury.

NOTES

Cleanliness of the internal parts is imperative for maximum life of the slide unit.

Parts that have been repaired should be covered or bagged until needed for

finished assembly.
Any high grade of bearing grease should be used for lubrication purposes.

Tools required:

knife or wire cutters

hex driver

arbor press

screwdriver

retaining ring pliers

torque wrench

plastic bags or clean containers to hold parts during the repair

lubricant

NOTE on Arbor Press: Using an arbor press is the safest and preferred way to

perform some of the operations in these instructions. Pressing through the body’s

length is necessary, so the arbor press must have its table a distance from the floor

that is equal to or greater than the stroke of the cylinder. A proper repair is unlikely

if these warnings are not followed.
