If there is one point to pay close attention to ... let it be this.
The threaded ends of the hydraulic cylinders are attached to the slide via a bracket ... there are two lock nuts on each side of the bracket. DO NOT tighten both these lock nuts tight against the bracket. The cylinders have more stroke than the slide room has travel ... this allows adjustment. Hydraulics are powerful ... if you tighten these up against the bracket, you're going to break something and it's going to be expensive to fix!!!! A side note ... a little adjustment (1/8") goes a long way in adjusting your slides.
