The torque to tighten the screws or nuts
depends on their size.
The tightening torques in the following
table [Nm] should be considered as a
guide, because in practice the coefficient
of friction may vary substantially. The
following data are based on
a coefficient of friction of 0.1-0.14.
Tighten the screws or nuts to the
specified torque.
