#1JUANstunna Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 I took one apart once and it's still apart. I'm even mechanically inclinded. I'd send it back to have it fixed. JMO. Quote
JTmachining Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Send it to MSS for any work needed. Wat do u need to take it apart for? Quote
mx1986 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Very easy to take apart. Release pressure and oil. Push the shaft all the way down then there is a retaining clip that you remove after tapping the collar down. Think there is two seals. Quote
Finch Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 there pretty cheap to service them id just send them in. but im lazy Quote

Knowing how to properly set up and charge,what weight oil,how much, etc ....that's the trick. That's why people are saying send to MSS. Quote
