piston rod lines up with the hole in the slider assembly,
insert the connecting pin.
25. Slide the retaining ring down over the connecting pin.
26. Continue to turn the upper housing clockwise until the
knock-off nut is flush against the gear box housing.

NOTE: For low rider units, make sure the hose does
not touch the cart frame. If it does, reposition
the nipple by turning the upper housing until
the hose is clear of the frame and the nipple is
within 45º of the back of the unit.
