9. Once all holes (or every other hole based upon which seam of the dryer you are working on at
the time) have a nut and bolt installed and are finger tightened, tighten with an electric impact: torque
to 45 ft./lbs.
NOTE: When installing, in all possible situations, place the impact on the bolt. Do NOT tighten the
nut as it will not lock down on the ring. Always tighten the bolt.
NOTE: Accessing the bolts that connect sections of the dryer together requires passing through
the hole in the channel as shown. Narrow 3/8" drive sockets and/or extensions are required.
Figure 10L Connecting Dryer Sections on Outside
Figure 10M Always tighten the bolt, not the nut to achieve torque specifications.
CAUTION
14.4 Volt cordless impacts are NOT recommended for installation as they will
not sufficiently torque the bolts. Use electric impact and torque to 45 ft./lbs. If
bolts are not torqued properly, channels will compress when filled and bolts will
become loose.
