>>B<< DRIVE PLATE CONNECTING BOLTS INSTALLATION

1.Temporarily tighten all the drive plate connecting bolts until bolt surfaces and the drive plate comes in full contact.
2.Tighten all the drive plate connecting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 56 ± 3 N·m
note The drive plate connecting bolt can be tightened to the specified torque easily by using the recommended tool [9.5 sq. flex ball joint (distributed by KTC, model number BJF20 <a in the figure>), or 9.5 sq. extension bar (swing head type) (distributed by KTC, model number BE3-030JW <b in the figure>) ].
