Tightening Sequence
- Tighten each bolt one turn at a time in order to avoid warping the clutch pressure plate cover.
- Use a criss-cross pattern for tightening the bolts.
- Tighten the pressure and cover plate bolts for the NV1500 transmission to 44 Nm (33 ft. lbs.).
- Tighten the pressure and cover plate bolts for the NV3500 to 40 Nm (29 ft. lbs.).
