There is a chamber divider at the backhead end of the casing which co-operates with the piston for conducting fluid under pressure into alternate chambers, one at each piston end, for reciprocation of the piston.
The backhead end of the chamber divider is adapted to co-operate with the inner end of the back-head assembly for the securing of the chamber divider between the screwed in backhead assembly, and the locating ring.
In use, air under pressure is admitted to the casing 1 by the backhead assembly 2 and passes along the first fluid path into the first fluid chamber 23 where the pressure causes the piston 13 to move towards the backhead assembly 2 and position two.
