Section 1: MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
1.6.5 Installation of Gyro
1) Rig gyro for lifting and lower gyro into
position onto top surface of four saddles.
2) Adjust position of gyro until alignment is
achieved for the 32 fasteners that will
attach gyro foundation frame to saddles.
3) Install Seakeeper supplied M16 fasteners
as shown in figure to right– apply a
moderate coat of nickel based anti-seize
compound to the threads of each bolt
prior to installation.
4) Torque all fasteners to 100 ft-lbs (136 N-
m).
5) Apply a small bead of sealant (silicone or
caulk) around the perimeter of each
isolation mount where it rests on the
saddle. This will prevent water from
wicking between the parts and setting up
corrosion.
6) Proceed to electrical and cooling portion
of the installation.
