Apply the recommended tightening torques in accordance with the stipulations in section 
Tightening procedure (Page 58).

A.4

Tightening procedure

Tighten fastening screws to the specified tightening torque in accordance with the following 
table:

Table A-5

Tightening procedure

Scatter of the torque ap‐
plied at the tool

Tightening procedure
(As a rule, the tightening procedures listed are within the specified 
tool torque scatter)

±5 %

• Hydraulic tightening with mechanical screwdriver
• Torque-controlled tightening with a torque wrench or a torque 

wrench that gives a signal

• Tightening with a precision mechanical screwdriver with dynamic 

torque measurement

The tightening torques apply to screws/bolts with untreated surfaces that are not oiled or are 
only lightly oiled, and for screws/bolts that are used with a liquid screw locking agent in 
accordance with these instructions. Use with lubricant paint or lubricant is not permitted.
