Note that gravity will want to make the shafts drop so be aware. The bigger one is like the ones on top where you have to use or fabricate an installation tool to prevent damaging the seal. The small one is easy because the gland nut the holds it is threaded on the outside of the shaft so it will go in without any threads rubbing it. Remove the eight 12 point bolts that hold C on and remove part C. Remove the snap ring under part C that holds it to the cylinder. Lift the small chrome shaft and remove the snap ring and the 3 keys that hold that lower foot on. Remove the two 3/8" bolts and nuts on the sides of D that hold cylinder in place. They are recessed up in there so you need a socket. Remove the four 1/4" head 12 point bolts that hold the manifold on the very bottom. That will allow a lot of the oil to drain back to the tank before disassembly. You can strap the lever with a bungee and give it a few minutes. If you want to prevent a massive oil spill you can remove the bleeder plug on the top of the cylinder and push the lever to down position. Now chain the carriage to the mast which will be about at 6' high. Lower the carriage until the channels hit the the 4X4 supports.
Take a 4' length of 4X4 and place it inside the center channel so it will support the inner most channel. Take a 2' length of 4X4 and place it inside the outer channel so that it will support the center channel. Lift the carriage so it is about 8' high. Chock the wheels so the machine can't roll. Are there any other parts to remove before this lifts out? The cylinder is not lifting, although it feels like its just sitting in a cup, it moves around but it isn't lifting out. I'm lifting the cylinder from the top, I placed the upper holder back on there to lift from. Removed the two side bolts from the lower holder, the ones that spin because there is an impossible to get to nut on the inside. Removed 6 bolts from lower front plate (4 are 12pt, 2 are allen).
Remove the block at the top of the lift that holds the top of the cylinder in place. In attempting to remove the cylinder I've performed these steps. It is a three stage lift with a telescoping cylinder. I have a Clark EC500-25E lift that has the top seal fail, creating a geyser. To see the photo go to I looked at the recent C500 thread that mentioned quite a bit of this but I'm not having any luck with mine. It seems that I can't upload a picture here.
