3.2 TIGHTENING TORQUES

The tightening torques stated in this section are 

different from the standard tightening torques 

stated in the overview of the standard tightening 

torques. The other threaded connections not 

specified must therefore be tightened to the 

torque stated in the overview of standard 

tightening torques.

When attachment bolts and nuts are to be 

replaced, it is important - unless stated otherwise - 

that these bolts and nuts are of exactly the same 

length and property class as the removed ones.
