Bolt torque settings

This forum is about the tools you use to service your Fordson tractor AND about the implements you use when out in the field with Ol' Blue.

Bolt torque settings

Post by Kiwi Kev »

Guys
Last week I received an email from somebody in USA asking me if I knew the torque settings for a Dexta water pump.
Short answer was no, had never torqued up a water pump before, or even thought to.
In conversation with my boss during the week, he said he had seen a book with bolt torque settings in it. So I jumped on Google and found lots of stuff on the subject.
Here is link to one of the pages, which could be worth hanging on the shed wall.

Many thanks - very useful. :wink:

All the best,
