Not even a hint of pumping, full fresh oil. Do I need to prime it? Not been operated in at least 30 years, probably 40. Piston noise sounds normalish if not a little louder than I remember. Things to check before I take it apart? I adjusted screws out against stops, disabled drawbar control by loosening adj screw and screwing lock screw into the housing, hold plate locked together.
I'm betting suction ball bearing stuck, rusted... Edited by dfwallis - 4 hours 57 minutes ago at 1:27pm |

Ok, oil drained, delicate workbench cleaned, let the surgery begin:( I was hoping against hope, but not unexpected.

How do you unstick a fully depressed piston, nothing to grab onto, no back side access.

is there a port 90 degrees to the side to blow air into the top of the piston ? If air is not enough, maybe soak thru the port with penetrating oil, then put a spoon full of oil thru the port and compress to build up psi ?

Check valve port inline, but none of the balls move. I haven't researched which direction they check

Assuming it's stuck because of gunk and not mechanical damage, I'd be inclined to throw it in either a heated parts washer* or ultrasonic tank to try and free things up. If it doesn't loosen the piston it at least ought to free up the check balls and allow you to use air.
I mention damage because of the loose bolt, hopeful someone didn't gouge it up trying to remove previously. *A dishwasher, minus the salts, can suffice in a pinch. Just make sure to oil parts after drying to avoid flash corrosion, and DO NOT attempt if there's a chance of being busted in the act by the wife! Ours takes about 50 minutes including drying cycle.
