I need help repairing the chuck on a Mazak Quick Turn 6T. It started leaking hydraulic fluid from chuck jaws, I can only imagine the orings in the cylinder have finally gone bad. It has done this before, but the previous foreman told us to turn down the chuck pressure. Not at all, "a fix".
Any way, I have already taken the chuck off and cleaned, prepped for reassembly, the runout was around .0001 of an inch. I did find a few nicks and scrapes, so I lightly stoned them out.
The part I need help with, well lets just say the rest of it, I don't have a manual or any instruction on the procedures necessary to disassemble the hydraulic cylinder, Nor have I ever done one before. I also have never put one back in. I"m curious if I'll have to adjust runout on the chuck after the repairs are made. Im guessing the entire cylinder system and draw tube are coming out. I did try to remove the cover behind the chuck, but its not moving, so I come to you guys for advice. What do I need to do to get this thing fixed...
