A gas actuating device includes a housing having a gas applying chamber, an actuator chamber and a gas applying passage for communicating gas from the gas applying chamber to the actuator chamber. An actuating member having a first side and a second side is disposed in the actuator chamber, wherein the first side of the actuating member receives gas pressure from gas applied to the actuating chamber from the gas applying passage. The actuating member moves in a first direction in response to the gas pressure applied to the first side of the actuating member. A valve selectively communicates compressed gas from the gas applying chamber to the actuator chamber through the gas applying passage for moving the actuating member in the first direction, and a gas release passage communicates gas from the actuator chamber at the first side of the actuating member to an outside of the actuator chamber.
