IMPORTANT!
– If possible, continue to use the old identification label; if this is not possible, the new identification label must
contain the same information and the old serial number. (Replacement of spare parts with serial numbers).
– When components are replaced it is necessary to ensure the traceability of the components replaced.
– If screws with thread locker are loosened, these must be replaced with new screws with thread locker.
Alternatively, new thread locker must be applied.
– If screws with circlip rings are loosened, these must be replaced with new ones.
– Parts that become damaged during removal must be replaced with new ones.
– All bolts must be tightened with the torque specified in the following instructions. Liquid high-strength and
low-strength adhesives are available. After the torque specifications, the adhesive to be used (high-strength
or low-strength) is indicated in brackets.
Fastening with hexagon socket bolts
Hexagon socket bolts are not designed to withstand an
excessive application of force. When tightening or undoing
a hexagon socket bolt, force should be applied to the nut
wherever possible to avoid damaging the bolt.
Tightening and undoing
Turn the nut using a socket spanner (only use an open-end
spanner if there is insufficient space), using the Allen key
simply to stop the bolt turning.
Tightening and undoing when no nut is present
If a hexagon socket bolt is screwed directly into a thread,
the bolt must be tightened using the Allen key.
Ensure that the Allen key is of good quality and not worn.
