Loosen or tighten bolts and nuts for the covers or housings diagonally.
The tightening specification stated apply to non-lubricated nuts and bolts.
Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts that were installed using locking fluid. Install the bolts using AMV 185 100 A1 liquid locking fluid.
Use a thread tap to clean all threaded holes containing self-locking bolts to remove any locking fluid residue. Otherwise the bolts could shear the next time they are removed.
Always replace self-locking nuts and bolts.
