Mountings
General
•
Check that all components are properly secured by
feeling, pulling etc. Keep a look out for wear damage.
This can be caused by components coming loose.
•
A bolted joint that is secured with adhesive should not
be tightened. Simply check that it is tight. If a glued
bolted joint has come loose, clean the threads before
fresh adhesive is applied.
•
Check the shafts with respect to mounting/locking.
Check expanding shafts by tightening with a torque
wrench.
•
Locking pins must be checked with respect to damage
and mounting.
Shafts
•
The design of the expanding shafts ensures that there
is not too much play provided that they are tightened
regularly. New expanding shafts must be tightened
frequently until they have bedded in. Wear damage on
the expanding shaft's sleeve is a typical sign that they
have not been tightened correctly or sufficiently often.
•
If an expanding shaft has slipped out of position it is
important that it is centered before being retightened
again.
