Lock Nut
Note 1: When tightening a lock nut, if it is difficult to use a torque wrench, manage the tightening
torque of the lock nut controlling the tightening angle range as explained below.
Tightening Angle Range of Lock Nuts for Rotors
a) After tightening the lock nut by hand, further tighten the lock nut by using a lock nut wrench until the
rotor starts to turn. Take care not to over-tighten.
b) Put a mark on the lock nut at the right side edge of the rotor groove where the stopper tongue of the
lock washer fits in, as shown in Figure 7-9.
c) From this marking position, tighten the lock nut in such a way that rotation can be stopped within the
tightening angle range shown in Table 7-3.
When measuring the angle, use an angle gauge which is set to the diameter of rotor shaft.
Table 7-3 Tightening Angles Specified
for Lock Nuts of Rotor
* When tightening lock nut, tightening start position
differs between the first time tightening and the
tightening for the second time or after. Therefore,
angle ranges are specified also for the second
time tightening.
