  2. Cylinder Dimensions: Check the component diameter and the tool's specified working range.

  3. Tool Engagement: Verify pin sizes, bolt configurations, engagement patterns, and available working clearance.

  4. Seal Compatibility: For seal installation tools, check the seal dimensions, profile, and material.

  5. Equipment Application: Verify the cylinder design rather than relying on equipment weight class or manufacturer alone.
