cylinder being replaced. The following shows the
part number for the 300N and 400N cylinders.

Cylinder rods must point down so

oil will lubricate the rod and seals. Failure to

lubricate will severely shorten cylinder life.

CAUTION

!

Removing a Cylinder

Check each glass section monthly to
determine if support cylinders are worn
and need to be replaced. If the glass
does not stay in a raised position, have
the cylinders replaced.
Each front curved glass section weighs
about 40 lb (18 kg). To prevent glass
from falling during installation, use or
maintenance and causing injury to
customers or personnel, Hussmann
recommends one person hold the glass
in a raised position while the other
person performs cylinder replacement.
Support the front glass at all times until
cylinder is replaced or the glass is low-
ered.

Cylinders are a wear item.
They are designed:
• to support the glass when fully open.
• to allow the glass to come down

(or close) slowly.

Have your Service Contractor replace the
cylinders when required.
