5. WEIGHT AND BALANCE DATA

Refer to the Pilot's Operating Handbook and Airplane Flight Manual, SSC10000AFM,
Section 6 for the Weight and Balance Data.

6. TIRE INFLATION

Refer to section 6.2.3 of this manual for the tire inflation data.

7. APPROVED OILS AND CAPACITIES

Refer to the POH or Section 6.2.3 of this manual for the approved oil and capacity data.

8. RECOMMENDED FASTENER TORQUES

General Torque Values

8.1
This chapter gives the requirements for torquing the fasteners.
No lubricating or anti-seize compounds are to be applied to threaded fasteners except when
specified. At the time of installation, the threads must be clean and free of corrosion, paint or
any products other than those applied by the fastener's manufacturer

Definitions

8.2
Running Torque: The average torque developed after the fastener is at least one full thread
through the nut, but prior to the tightening of the joint (also called self-locking torque, locking
torque, friction drag torque).
Assembly Torque: The torque required by design engineering in order to create the desired
axial load on the bolt/nut assembly (also called tightening torque or installation torque).

Torquing Requirement

8.3
Whenever possible, the nut shall be turned during torquing.
Where it is necessary to tighten the fastener assembly from the head, the installation torque
shall be the maximum torque indicated in Chapter 5.2.8.7 + 10 percent.
This is only applicable for fasteners greater than 3/16" in diameter.
When nuts are to be secured to fasteners by means of cotter pins or lock wire, the low side of
the specified torque range shall be approached for tightening. If necessary, tightening shall be
continued until the next slot aligns with the hole.
