Special Tool - Rod Guide Case Wrench, 35 mm: 57001 -1758
Torque - Piston Rod Guide Case: 90 N·m(9.2 kgf·m, 66 ft·lb)
NOTE
Formula: a × b ÷ (b + c) = d
[a] Specified torque
[b] Length from center of square hole to grip point
[c] Offset = 30 mm
[d] Tightening torque
For an example: 90 N·m × 450 ÷ (450 + 30) = 84 N·m
