27. Locate the upper half of the casing into place
using the tapered dowel pins and install the
casing main joint bolts. See Figure 29. The
casing joints should be tightened to the
following torques: 140 ft.-lb. minimum for 5/8"-
11 hex head cap screws (Grade 5); 350ft.-lb.
minimum for 7/8"-9 Ferry Cap Counterbore
screws (Grade 8). Bolt torquing pattern is
shown in Figure 12.
NOTE: Torque values are essential in obtaining
proper gasket compression so no leakage can
occur at the main joint.
28. Rotate the shaft by hand to assure that it turns
smoothly and it is free from rubbing or binding.
29. Reinstall the coupler, check for alignment, and
install the coupler guard. See the sections
entitled Alignment Procedure and ANSI/OSHA
Coupler Guard Removal/Installation.
