only. These recommended torque values are approximate only. The torque-tension
relationship is affected by lubrication, surface finish, thread fit, plating, lock-washers, etc.
'2 127 use these values if a different torque value or tightening procedure is given for
a specific application. Torque values listed are for general use only. Check tightness of
fasteners periodically.
Shear bolts are designed to fail under predetermined loads. Always replace shear bolts
with identical grade.
Fasteners should be replaced with the same or higher grade. If higher-grade fasteners
are used, these should only be tightened to the strength of the original.
Make sure fasteners threads are clean and that you properly start thread engagement.
This will prevent them from failing when tightening.

WARNING
Maintain proper torque to provide safe and secure
attachment of the wheel hub/drum. Improperly tightened
wheel nuts can cause the wheel to separate from the wheel mounting surface
during operation. This could result in property damage, serious personal injury,
or possibly loss of life.
NOTE - If wheel does not have chamfers to match profile of the nuts, use flat side of
nuts against rim face.
Install all lug nuts/bolts by hand to prevent cross threading and tighten lug nuts/bolts
following the steps and tightening sequence diagram below.
STEP 1) Torque to 20-25 ft•lbs following the appropriate pattern below.
STEP 2) Torque to 55-60 ft•lbs following the appropriate pattern below.
STEP 3) Torque to final ft•lbs rating (see bolt size below) following the
appropriate pattern below.
NOTE - Recheck the torque settings of lug nuts/bolts after 10km (6 miles) and again
after 50km (30 miles). Periodically and at the beginning of each season check the
condition and the torque of the lug nuts/bolts.

Signal Words
The words DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION are
used with the safety alert symbol. Learn to
recognize the safety alerts, and follow the
recommended precautions and safe practices.
Three words are used in conjunction with the safety-alert symbol:
DANGER
WARNING
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, will cause DEATH OR VERY SERIOUS INJURY.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, could cause DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, may result in MINOR or MODERATE INJURY.
Replace any DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION or
instructional decal that is not readable or is missing.
The location and part number of these
decals is identified later in this section of the
manual.
The words Important and Note are not related to
personal safety but are used to give
additional information and tips for

IMPORTANT: Iden tifies special instructions or
pr ocedures whic h , if not strictly
observed could result in damage to, or

General Safety Precautions

Salford Farm Machinery Ltd.
AC2000 Assembly Manual 2011
Wings may fall rapidly
causing injury.
Always stay clear of wings
when being lowered, raised
or in a elevated state.
Always use lockup device
provided when raised.
Ensure cylinder is completely
filled with hydraulic fluid to
avoid unexpected
movement.
• DO NOT search for high pressure hydraulic
leaks without hand and face protection. A
tiny, almost invisible leakcan penetrate skin,
thereby requiring immediate medical
attention.
• Use cardboard or wood to detect leaks –never
your hands.
• Double check that all is clear before
operating hydraulics.
• Never remove hydraulic hoses or ends
with machine elevated. Relieve hydraulic
pressure before disconnecting hydraulic
hoses or ends.
• Maintain proper hydraulic fluid levels.
• Keep all connectors clean for positive connections.
• Ensure all fittings and hoses are in good condition.
• Do notstand under wings.
