Proper Torque Values For Fasteners; Connecting The Mower To The Tractor - Alamo Industrial FALCON 15/10 Operator's Manual

PROPER TORQUE VALUES FOR FASTENERS

The chart (found on Section 3-3) lists the correct tightening torque for fasteners. When bolts are to be
tightened or replaced, refer to this chart to determine the grade of bolts and the proper torque except when
specific torque values are assigned in manual text.
RECOMMENDED TORQUE IN FOOT POUNDS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED IN THE MANUAL*
NOTE: These values apply to fasteners as received from supplier, dry or when lubricated with normal engine
oil. They do not apply if special graphitic or molydisulphide greases or other extreme pressure lubricants are
used. This applies to both UNF fine and UNC coarse threads.

CONNECTING THE MOWER TO THE TRACTOR

Use extreme caution when connecting the mower to the tractor. The mower should be securely resting at
ground level or setting on blocks. Keep hands and feet from under the mower deck and clear of pinch points
between the tractor hitch arms and mower pins. OPS-R-0001
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the
parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement
and Tractor hitches.
