with the gasket in place.
4. Reinstall the two screws (15) to secure the piston
housing to the fluid housing (2). Torque to 30 in-lb
(3.4 N•m).
5. Insert the piston (21) into the piston housing (1).
6. Remove the protective paper from the sticky side of
the gasket (13*) and adhere the gasket to the bot-

(9) and gasket (8) in the tip retainer nut (7). Screw
the assembly firmly onto the gun. Tighten the
assembly with a wrench, but do not exceed 5 ft-lb
(6.8 N•m) for model 233670 gun.

screws (14). Torque to 65 in-lb (7.3 N•m).
CAUTION
Install a new gasket (11) whenever you remove the
seat (10, 41) from the gun. Failure to install a new
gasket may result in fluid leaking into the air chamber.
CAUTION
Be sure to keep the needle straight when installing it
in the piston housing. If the needle is bent it must be
replaced.
