This thing has a castle nut and a hole in the shaft for a cotter key. I did not see anything in the book on what to do if one of the nut extensions falls on top of the cotter pin hole. 100 seems like plenty of torque to start with. Anybody seen any information on which way to go to get the hole lined up - loose or tight? [Reply]   [No Email]

How many lb ft at the next looser and howard lb ft to the. Ext tighter? Have you spun the shaft a few times when torqued to 100 in case the pre- load eases some? New or used bearings?

I did not check the next looser torque. The bearings have 124 operating hours on them. I am working at getting a better set on the R&P because of the noise it was making. I had the preload set at .005 [Reply]  [No Email]
