Always replace locking devices with one of the same design and of the correct size.

Tab washers. Always release locking tabs before loosening fixings, do not re-use tab washers.

Locknuts. Always use a backing spanner when loosening and tightening locknuts, brake and fuel pipe unions.

Roll pins. Always fit new roll pins of the correct size.

Circlips. Always fit new circlips ensuring that they are of the correct size for the groove.

Woodruff keys. Woodruff keys may be re-used provided there is no indication of wear or distortion. Remove any burrs from edges of keyways using a fine file.

Split pins. Never attempt to straighten and re-use a split pin, always ensure that replacement pins are of the correct size for the hole in which they are to be fitted.

Screw Threads. Damaged nuts, bolts and screws must always be discarded. Attempting to recut or repair damaged threads with a tap or die impairs the strength and fit of the threads and is not recommended.

ЗАБЕЛЕЖКА: По време на определени ремонтни операции може да се наложи да отстраните следи от средства за фиксиране на резби с помощта на кран. Когато това е необходимо, инструкцията за това ще се появи в съответната операция и е важно да се използва метчик с правилния размер и резба.

Some bolts are coated with a thread locking agent and unless stated otherwise, they must not be re-used. New bolts having the same part number as the original must always be fitted. When nuts or bolts are to be discarded, the repair operation and relevant torque chart will include an instruction to that effect. Do not use proprietary thread locking agents as they may not meet the specification required. See also Encapsulated ('Patched') Bolts and Screws.
Always ensure that replacement nuts and bolts are at least equal in strength to those that they are replacing. Castellated nuts must not be loosened to accept a split pin except in recommended cases when this forms part of an adjustment.
Do not allow oil or grease to enter blind holes, the hydraulic action resulting from tightening the bolt or stud can split the housing and also give a false torque reading.
Always tighten a nut, bolt or screw to the specified torque figure, damaged or corroded threads can give a false torque reading.
Nut and bolt loosening and tightening sequences, where given, must ALWAYS be followed. Distortion of components or faulty sealing of joints will result if the sequences are not followed. Where an instruction is given to tighten in stages, these stages must be adhered to; do not attempt to combine stages particularly where certain stages involve tightening by degrees.
To check or re-tighten a fixing to a specified torque, first loosen a quarter of a turn, then retighten to the specified torque figure.
Unless instructed otherwise, do not lubricate bolt or nut threads prior to fitting.

Where it is stated that bolts and screws may be re-used, the following procedures must be carried out:
