Abstract
A cylinder protection device for a cylinder of a machine includes a cylindrical body. The cylinder protection device includes a first portion having a first surface and a second surface. The first and second surfaces are disposed between a first end and a second end of the first portion. The first and second surfaces are inclined relative to each other. Further, the first and second surfaces intersect at a first upper edge of the first portion. The cylinder protection device also includes a second portion disposed on the cylindrical body and connected to the second end of the first portion. The second portion includes a third surface and a fourth surface inclined relative to each other. Further, the third and fourth surfaces intersect at a second upper edge of the second portion. The second upper edge is inclined relative to the first upper edge of the first portion.
