• Check regularly that the screws and nuts are firmly screwed in.
• Shear bolts are so designed that they shear off at a certain load
level. Only use bolts of the same class when replacing shear
bolts.
• When replacing nuts and bolts take care to replace them with
corresponding parts of the same or higher class.
• Tension nuts and bolts of a higher class with the same torque as
the parts originally used.
• Make sure the thread is clean and the screws correctly inserted
before tightening up the screw connections. This prevents
damage occurring during tightening up.
• Torque the lock nuts (not the screws) with plastic inserts and
flanged steel lock nuts with approx. 50% of the “dry” value
shown in the chart.
• Torque the toothed or castellated nuts with the full torque.
