Note: The fasteners are supplied in marked packs. Each pack
contains a set of fasteners for different parts of the turbine. The
enclosed grease is used on all nuts that are M10 or larger.
Note: One additional fastener pack contains one spare unit of every
fastener used on the turbine.
It may be useful to remove the sides of the packing case to access the
assembly. Remove the securing bolts and pads to free the generator
assembly. If possible, use lifting gear to remove the assembly from the
case. Otherwise have at least three other assistants to lift the
assembly from the case. Two lifting straps may be fitted to the
generator for lifting. Beware of the generator tipping forward and
causing injury to hands.
Beware not to damage the output cables below the generator. The
generator assembly is heavy at the front and will easily tip over. When
installed, the turbine is balanced on the yaw shaft.
