I replaced the seals in one of the
lift cylinders on my Paulson loader. Cylinders are hydraulic up gravity down. 4 chevron type seals are used. 4 5/16. bolts are used to hold the end flange rot the cylinder. I just pulled the bolts up snug. Looks like this type sealing on a hydraulic cylinder Has to be checked and tightened as necessary. Is this correct? Reminds med of the stuffing box on the propeller shaft on a boat. You tighten but not over tighten as it is possible to lock the shaft
