2.4.1 Remarks on the use of RUD-eye bolts
− they must be completely screwed down, lying fully on the seating surfaces.
− they are hand-screwed with their own star-profile wrenches (do not use any
extension).
D In order that after tightening the ring of the RUD-eye bolt is freely rotatable, the
star-profile wrench must be removed from the inner hexagon of the screw as
shown in Fig. ’A’.
D Prior to loading the RUD-eye bolt adjust it in force direction (RUD-eye bolts
are not suitable to be turned under load).
D Lateral loading is permitted in no circumstances! (Fig. ’B’)
