Instructions on using screw locking devices
A screw locking device can be used on the screws. Screw
locking is done at the factory using two different meth-
ods:
▪ Thread-locking fluid
▪ Mechanical screw locking device
Always re-apply the screw locking device!
Thread-locking fluid
Medium-strength thread-locking fluid (e.g. Loctite 243)
is used for the liquid screw locking compound. This
threadlocker can be loosened with increased force. If the

pound must be heated to approx. 300 °C (572 °F). Clean
the components thoroughly after dismantling.
Mechanical screw locking device
The mechanical screw locking device consists of two
Nord-Lock wedge lock washers. The screw connection is
secured by the clamping force. The Nord-Lock screw
locking device must only be used on bolts with strength
class 10.9 which have been coated with Geomet. The use
of stainless screws is prohibited!
Which repair work may be carried out
▪ Readjusting the cutting gap.
Readjusting the macerator
The gap between cutting plate and blade is approx.
0.1 mm (0.004 in). If the gap becomes too great, then
cutting performance is impaired and clogging will in-
crease. In this case, readjust the gap.
Necessary tools
▪ Torque wrench with size 4 Allen wrench insert
▪ Size 5 Allen wrench
▪ Size 4 Allen wrench
