TIGHTENING TORQUE LIST
CAUTION
If nuts, bolts, or other parts are not tightened to the specified torque, it will cause looseness or damage to the tightened parts, and
this will cause failure of the machine or problems with operation.
Always pay careful attention when tightening parts.
Unless otherwise specified, tighten the metric nuts and bolts to the torque shown in the table below.
If it is necessary to replace any nut or bolt, always use a Komatsu genuine part of the same size as the part that was
replaced.
