10. After tightening, the piston rod should not protrude more than 0.010 in. (0.25<br />

mm) past the piston face. If it does, contact your packager and/or <strong>Ariel</strong>.<br />

11. Inspect the two Allen set-screws and if damaged, replace them. Apply a thin<br />

coating of “Never-Seez”, Regular Grade, to the set screws threads and seating<br />

surfaces. Two new Allen key wrenches are required per nut at each tightening<br />

and are discarded after their one time destructive use. Install the set screws and<br />

tighten so that the Allen wrench is permanently deformed by tightening past its<br />

yield point (twisted through an additional 15° arc). A piece of heavy wall tubing<br />

or equal of a proper inside diameter to fit over the Allen wrench is required to<br />

extend the “handle” end of the wrench to achieve proper tightening. The Allen<br />

wrenches used must conform to ASME B18.3 requirements for hexagonal keys.<br />

12. Use a 60° center punch to prickpunch<br />

the piston nut, within 1/16 in.<br />

(1.5 mm) of the set screw threads,<br />

to stake the set screws in place.<br />

Prick-punch marks should deform<br />

the nut to lock the set screws without<br />

deforming the set screw. The<br />

staked piston nut must not exhibit<br />

any cracks or torn material that<br />

might allow chips to come loose in<br />

service. See Figure 5-27.<br />

13. Weigh the piston rod assembly with the piston rings and wear bands included.<br />

Weigh parts on a calibrated scale to 0.1 pounds (0.05 kg). Stamp the weight on<br />

the piston’s head end. Remove any raised lips caused by stamping using a fine<br />

grit flat stone to avoid clearance measurement errors. Record this weight for<br />
