of a fastener can lead to damage to the fastener and/or
the components. Hydraulic lock of a fastener can also
prevent the proper clamping loads to be obtained when
the fastener is tightened. Improper clamping loads can
prevent proper sealing of the components allowing
leakage to occur. Preventing proper fastener tightening
can allow the components to loosen or separate leading
to extensive engine damage.
Window Edge Damage Notice

Avoid damage to the window from impacting objects due
to an exposed edge. The window must be 1 mm (0.025
in) below the surface of the sheet metal to avoid window
damage.
