2 | Screw |
1. | Remove attachment. | |
2. | See Figure 4. To adjust, rotate (3) in small increments so the "T" (1) is no longer on top and approaches either position (2). | |
3. | At each increment, check fit with attachment. | |
4. | Continue rotation in small increments and test until desired tightness is achieved. The tightest possible position is when the "T"s reach position (2). | |
5. | See Figure 3. Tighten docking point screws (2). Torque: 15–18.3 N·m (11.1–13.5 ft-lbs) | |
6. | Install attachment. |
1 | Loosest position (T location) |
2 | Tightest position (T location) |
3 | Possible rotation direction |
1. | Record current "T" position for each docking point. | |
2. | Remove screw from docking point. | |
3. | Remove threadlocker from docking point screw(s) and mounting hole thread(s). | |
4. | Apply 2 or 3 drops of threadlocker to threads of docking point screw(s).LOCTITE 243 MEDIUM STRENGTH THREADLOCKER AND SEALANT (BLUE) (99642-97) | |

7. | Tighten docking point screws. | |
8. | If docking point "T"s are in position (2): a. Remove screw from rear docking points. b. Rotate each docking point until "T" on opposite side reaches loosest position (1). c. Remove threadlocker from docking point screw(s) and mounting hole thread(s). d. Apply 2 or 3 drops of threadlocker to threads of docking point screw(s).LOCTITE 243 MEDIUM STRENGTH THREADLOCKER AND SEALANT (BLUE) (99642-97) e. Install docking points and screws. Finger tighten. f. Check attachment at each docking point, rotating the "T" toward (2) until a tight fit of attachment is achieved at each location. g. Secure docking point screws. Tighten. | |
9. | After multiple adjustments, if the detachable accessory continues to rattle or remains loose, replace the docking points. |
