This rule (like many others) relies on a judgement call from the refs. I'd say that as long as your robot is always in contact with the gear until it is fully supported by the lift (i.e. it's always either touching the robot or the lift), you won't get called on throwing. If your piston is moving fast enough to throw the gear out of the robot (or even make it look like it's being throw even if it's not), try lowering the pressure.
