ANNEX B
Nut-and-Locknut Technique
The nut-and-locknut technique serves to prevent a nut from loosening by superimposing another nut.
Thus it is possible to use as a fastening
device. This technique is useful to
remove and tighten the studs from the
gearbox.
To loosen both nuts two keys are used
likewise, now in the opposite direction.
Two keys are used to tighten a nut
against each other, making both nuts fix
so they can’t loosen.
