3.5 Bolts and Nuts ♦ Loosen or tighten bolts and nuts on the covers or housings diagonally. ♦ The tightening specifications stated apply to non-oiled nuts and bolts. ♦ Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts that were screwed in with locking compound. Install the bolts with Lock‐ ing Fluid - AMV 185 101 A1- . ♦ Use a thread cutter to clean all threaded holes containing self- locking bolts to remove any locking compound residue. Oth‐ erwise the bolts could shear the next time they are removed. ♦ Please make sure that the thread pitch is correct so that the proper thread cutter is used during cleaning, and the thread does not get damaged. ♦ Always replace self-locking nuts and bolts. |
