Installing an Adjustable Fitting (continued)
Hydraulic System: General Information
Before installing the fitting into the port, determine the material of
which the port is made. Installing a fitting into an aluminum port
requires a reduced installation torque.
5. Install the adjustable fitting into the port by hand until the washer contacts the
face of the port (Step 2 in
6. If the adjustable fitting needs to align with another component, rotate the fitting
counterclockwise until it is aligned to the desired position (Step 3 in
24). Do not rotate the adjustable fitting more than 1 turn counterclockwise.
7. Hold the fitting in the correct alignment with a wrench and use a torque
wrench and tighten the fitting to the recommended torque value within the
specified range of torque values; refer to the
(page 4–10). This tightening procedure requires a drive-adapter wrench
(e.g., crowfoot wrench).
Note: It may be necessary to use a drive-adapter wrench (e.g., crowfoot
wrench) to install a hydraulic fitting; refer to
When Using a Drive-Adapter Wrench (page
8. If a torque wrench is not available or if space at the port prevents the use
of a torque wrench, use the alternative procedure
Table (page 4–12)
A. Hold the fitting in the correct alignment with a wrench and, if the port
material is steel, tighten the locknut with a second wrench to the listed
