Improper operation may lead to deadlock of Bolts and Nuts. Follow the steps below to reduce this
risk
1
.
Reduce the friction coefficient:
(
1
)
Ensure that the thread surface is clean (no dirt or contaminant)
(
2
)
Apply lubricant (grease or 40# engine oil) to fasteners prior tightening to avoid galling or
seizing in the threads;

Safe Torques
Please refer to safe torques defined in this guide as shown in below figure. In case power tools are
required, Clenergy recommends the use of low speed only. High speed and impact drivers increase
the risk of bolt galling (deadlock) If deadlock occurs and you need to cut fasteners please make sure
that there is no load on the fastener before you cut it. Avoid damaging the anodized or galvanized
surfaces.
