Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tazza" data-source="post: 17077" data-attributes="member: 82">To remove the shaft is simple! if the piston is still intact, remove the gland nut at the front so the cylinder is open, hook your hydraulics up to the rear port behind the piston, push the pedal and presto! the piston will be forced out. You will have at  least 10 tonne of force behind it at 2,500 PSI that your machine will generate.If your stick broke at the thread and there is a hole in the middle of the piston i see a problem.Be careful with this, as you don't want anyone at the front of the cylinder just in case they get hit or squirted with high pressure oil.</blockquote>
