Bolts and Nuts

Bolts and Nuts

• Loosen or tighten bolts and nuts for the covers or housings diagonally.

• The tightening specifications stated apply to non-lubricated nuts and bolts.

• Use a wire brush to clean the threads of the bolts that were installed using locking fluid. Install the bolts with liquid locking fluid (AMV 185 100 A1).

• Use a thread tap to clean all threaded holes containing self locking bolts to remove any locking fluid residue. Otherwise the bolts could shear the next time they are removed.

• Always replace self-locking nuts and bolts.
