I will make an assumption (not always a good idea) and say the 2 unused
cylinder retract ports should be hooked together with 2 legs of a Tee, then the
third leg of the Tee attaced to the unused port on the pneumatic switch. Every
other Technic set I've assembled has been done this way, and someone even
observed on the pre-release pics of 8421 that the unused retract ports were
unusual. Plese correct me if I'm wrong.
