7.) Apply the following torque when tightening the Rotor Jam Nut using
torque wrench at 40 ft.lbs. / 55 Nm.
NOTE: When The Shaft and Face are exposed, apply a liberal
amount of synthetic grease to the gap around Shaft and Bearing
on the Face of the turbine (this should be performed as a regular
maintenance event every 12 months). See FAQ section on storage
kit recommendations and Appendix C
IMPORTANT:
Tef-Gel is a corrosion inhibitor and is especially
important in marine applications. Tef-Gel should be applied to all
blade bolts and yaw bolts using the applicator and Tef-Gel provid-
ed with your hardware kit. Tef-Gel helps to prevent corrosion and
lubricates threads (recommended for both land and marine us-
age).
IMPORTANT: Observe torque specs
