The 2K4973 nut threads onto a bolt or stud to create and hold clamp load, locking the joint together against vibration. The right nut keeps a fastened assembly secure.
How do I install the 2K4973 nut?
A reliable installation of the 2K4973 starts with inspection and ends with verification. Follow this process:
- Shut the machine down and isolate power before service
- Clean the threads on the stud or bolt and inspect them
- Thread the 2K4973 on by hand to confirm it runs freely
- Tighten to the specified torque in the correct sequence
- Re-check the torque after the first operating cycle if advised
