BOTH PIVOT/HINGE SCREWS MUST HAVE THREADLOCK COMPOUND
RE-APPLIED AND RE-TORQUED ONCE REMOVED
AFTER INITIAL INSTALLATION. FAILURE TO DO SO
MAY RESULT IN UNINTENDED LOOSENING AND MAY
CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THE FEMALE
THREADS IN THE MULTI-PURPOSE BACKREST AND
THE THREADS ON THE REMOVED SCREWS WILL NEED
TO BE CLEANED TO REMOVE ANY THREADLOCKER
RESIDUE BEFORE RE-INSERTING. RE-APPLY
LOCTITE® THREADLOCKER BLUE 242® OR
EQUIVALENT, AS SHOWN IN PIC 8, RE-TORQUING TO
15 FT-LBS (20.3 NM) USING A TORQUE WRENCH AND
3/16” ALLEN/HEX KEY ATTACHMENT. LET CURE PER
THE THREADLOCK MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS
AFTER INSTALLATION. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO
APPLY THREADLOCKER, THEN ORDER A NEW SERVICE
KIT, (P/N 991660) WHICH WILL CONTAIN SCREWS
WITH BLUE THREADLOCK ADHESIVE PRE-APPLIED.
STEP 11
Check the operation of the Backrest by folding the locking levers (PIC 9)
to the straight out position. Lower or raise the backrest to the desired
location. Fold the locking levers over to lock them in place. Gently rock
the Backrest back and forth to ensure the locking pins are engaged in the
notches in the Fixed Mounts. Repeat for the other position of the
Backrest. Visually inspect the Shoulder Washers and Countersunk
Socket Head Cap Screws at the pivot point for any signs of
loosening before each ride. Küryakyn requires checking all
backrest attaching fasteners to the torque specifications defined
in these instructions every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.
NOTE: See instructions for Multi-Purpose Driver/Passenger Backrest,
P/N 1660 or P/N 1661, for adjustment procedures.
