Storage; Tightening Torque For Nut And Bolt Connections - PRONAR T740 Manual

•
Observe environmental protection principles and wash trans-shipment trailer in
a place designated for such purpose.

5.8 STORAGE

Trans-shipment trailer should be stored in a completely enclosed or roofed building.
If the trans-shipment trailer will not be used for a long time, it is essential to protect it from
adverse weather, especially rust and accelerated tyre deterioration. During this time trailer
must be unloaded. Trans-shipment trailer should be very carefully washed and dried.
Corroded places should be protected using undercoat paint and then painted with surface
paint according to colour scheme.
In the event of prolonged work stoppage, it is essential to lubricate all elements regardless of
the period of the last lubrication process - does not apply to changing oil in gearing units.
Chains should be taken off and carefully washed if suitable for further use, reinstalled and
smeared generously with grease.
Wheel rims and tyres should be carefully washed and dried. During longer storage of unused
trans-shipment trailer, it is recommended that every 2 to 3 weeks the trailer may be moved a
bit so that the place of contact of tyres with ground is changed. So that tyres are not
deformed and maintain proper geometry. Also tyre pressure should be inspected from time to
time, and if necessary pressure should be increased to appropriate value.
Weigher indicator panel must be kept in a dry room together with electrical supply lead.
5.9 TIGHTENING TORQUE FOR NUT AND BOLT
CONNECTIONS
Unless other tightening parameters are given, during maintenance repair work apply
appropriate torque to tightening nut and bolt connections. Recommended tightening torque of
most frequently applied nut and bolt connections are given in table below. Given values apply
to non greased steel bolts.
