  2. TORQUE SPECIFICATION Tighten conrod bolts initially to specified torque.
  3. Tighten conrod bolts with a torquing angle wrench.

IMPORTANT If no torquing angle wrench is available, tighten conrod bolt further by the specified angle using a wrench socket and T arm in a single stroke.

Do not use flexi-torque wrenches when tightening in order to eliminate the risk of angle errors.
