how to make sure the blade screws and bolts are tightened properly
should loose bolts be found too often, contact the Manufacturer.
do not
use nuts and bolts made of material different from the original material or with different
characteristics�
do not
break the bolts by tightening them with a torque wrench; this could break the wrench or
throw off its calibration� When using a torque multiplier with a torque wrench, incorrect wrench
settings are multiplied by the set ratio�
To ensure the correct tightening of the screws and bolts, or to periodically check tightness, only
use a suitably rated torque wrench, after having carefully read the instructions provided with
the wrench�
Torque wrenches must be calibrated annually�
Tightened bolts stretch, with a corresponding decrease in resistance, which compromises the
hold of the bolts themselves� As such, all bolts can only be tightened twice, after which they
need to be replaced�
Proper screw and bolt tightening is fundamental for the connection to work safely�
An over-tightened joint may, in fact, cause permanent plastic deformation that affects the solidity of the
connection�
An under-tightened joint can cause subsidence due to fatigue, loosening and relative sliding of the joined
parts and consequent cutting of the bolt, vibrations and shaking of the joined parts�
Bolts must be tightened correctly by rotating the nut and not the screw head�
