3)
Loosen the wing retaining knob and extend the wing over to the
opposite flange.
Rotate the screw bolt onto the surface of the opposite flange.
Ensure that the tool is sitting level and that the friction pad on
the base of the swivel is in full and even contact with the
surface of the opposite flange.
4)
Attach the hook of the strap through
the buckle on top of the base plate as
shown.
5)
Now place the hook of the ratchet
mechanism through the opposite side
of the buckle as shown.
6)
Feed the open end of the strap
through the ratchet mechanism as
shown. Tighten the strap using the
ratchet mechanism.
7)
The torque wrench should be set at 14
ft/lbs (19Nm) then attached to the
screw bolt.
8)
Tighten the screw bolt in a clockwise direction until the flanges come
into alignment; or the torque wrench “clicks” If the torque wrench has
clicked and the flanges are still mis-aligned adjust the torque wrench
up to 24.2 lbf.ft (33 Nm) and continue until a maximum torque
wrench setting of 50t/lbs (67.8N/m) is reached or the flanges are
aligned.
The maximum safe working load is 50 lbf.ft (67.8 Nm) Exceeding 50
lbf.ft will result in damage to the tool.
9)
Once in alignment the bolts may be inserted and tightened.
After replacing all of the bolts (apart from the bolt which will go into the bolt-hole in which the
WCA4TM is located), remove the tool by reversing steps 2 – 8. Insert the last bolt and tighten.
Care should be taken not to drop any of the component parts when removing them from the flange
joint. This action will prevent injuries to either the operator’s lower limbs, or to passers-by.
