  3. Remove the old gripper housing

    Carefully lift out the lever arm and cylinder/link plate assembly. Slide the PVC tubing over the gripper housing assembly and onto the cylinder shaft. Grip the cylinder shaft in a brass jaw vise and unscrew the gripper housing assembly using a 5/16” open-end wrench.
