* Check torque at whichever interval occurs first.
The preceeding bolt torque chart covering English and
Metric fasteners are used by Gradall engineering. Gradall
ratings are for lubricated fasteners. Do not exceed the
allowable rating. An over-torqued bolt in most cases will
fail as rapidly as an under-torqued bolt.
CAUTION
!
To check GRADALL torque values, set the torque wrench at 95% of rated torque value and check fastener. If the
torque wrench releases before the fastener moves, assume fastener torque is correct. When setting GRADALL
torque values, use the values given on the following chart. Do not exceed allowances.
