08/12/2008 3:12 AM

i have an Elga Hydrashear 3m X 10mm shearing machine. it has two nitrogen cylinders for lifting. now a days N2 level is dropping down. so i have replaced seals to avoid it. but it didn't stop. i dont have a catalog for this machine,there for very dificult to find a new cylinder (also correct seals). please tell me how to find a catalog.

If you can send me a photo of the cylinders, hope I can have an idea about it.
