6. Install the intermediate member, disc packs, long and short bolts with nuts between the hubs;
tightening the locknuts finger tight. Tighten the locknuts of one hub to ½ the stated torque
value in table 1. Tighten the locknuts of other hub to ½ the stated torque value in table 1.
Tighten the locknuts of the intermediate member to ½ the stated torque value in table 1.
Repeat the process but tightening to the full torque value (see table 1). It is also recommended
to apply torque on the locknut, not the bolt. Re-check and tighten all fasteners after several
hours of operation to ensure proper tightening.
*NOTE: Rotating equipment is potentially dangerous and should be properly guarded.
The user should follow all applicable safety codes and provide a suitable guard.
