Stihl TS 400 Manual

STIHL TS 400 5
DG screws are screwed into plastic and light metal parts. These screws cut a thread in the material when they are screwed
in for the first time. The material is permanently deformed. The screws can then be removed at will and retightened without
impairing the strength of the screw connection, provided that the specified tightening torque is maintained. It is therefore
essential to use a torque wrench.

Remark
1)
2)
When screwing the DG screws into an existing screw thread:
- Insert the DG screw in the hole and turn counterclockwise until it gently drops into the hole in axial direction.
- Turn the screw clockwise and tighten with the specified torque.
This procedure guarantees that the screw engages in the existing screw thread without cutting a new thread and thus
prevents the strength of the screw connection being weakened.
1) Secure screw with adhesive 0786 111 1109 (Loctite 270).
2) A washer must be fitted under the head of the screw.
Note: Screws secured with adhesive must be heated with a hot-air fan (drier) in order to release them.
Great care must be exercised with plastic parts!
