2. Waisted studs
Waisted studs must be tightened according to the values in the following diagram.
D Before fitting a waisted stud clean its thread and corresponding tap hole. The
sealing faces must be degreased (e.g. using white spirit) and subsequently
primed.
D Screw in the waisted stud without lubricant on the thread right to the bottom of
the tap hole, and tighten. Always utilize a stud driver or two nuts.
Tools like a pipe wrench etc. which would damage the stud shank must never be
used.
D For the protection of the waisted stud in the cylinder block and cylinder cover,
fill the annular space above the thread with a non-hardening jointing com-
pound (see 2751−1).
