TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS (KA/KC MODELS)

NOTE:

Refer to the appropriate portion of the manual for the precautions and complete procedures.
Refer to the appropriate portion of the manual for the bolts/nuts not indicated here.

1: Parts to be tightened in a particular order.

2: Follow the appropriate manual procedures closely for torque, sequence, and special steps.
Power tools must be used appropriately.

Follow instructions and precautions carefully per the tool's manufacturer.

Do not use power tools for tightening. Only use them during removals of fasteners.
When using some special tools or crowfoot-type wrenches, the torque value changes due to the added leverage. The actual torque applied will be greater than the torque
reading shown.

The torque specification given is the actual torque, not the reading on the torque wrench.
To compensate for this additional leverage, use the formula below to calculate the torque value reading on the torque wrench.
Always use the special tool or crowfoot-type wrench in a straight line with the torque wrench, or you will apply improper torque.
