to match track of other blades. Re-tighten bolts and re-check
track and pitch angle setting. Re-tighten blade clamp bolts to
recommended standard of 55 ft-lb (lubricated) or 60 ft-lb (dry)
torque.
INSTALL SEAL DISC
Making sure hole in seal disc is over oil filler assembly, fasten
seal disc to top of hub with six (6) 3/8" cap screws. Put flat
washer against seal disc and lock washer between flat washer

recirculating back down through the hub, increasing efficiency.
