Sequence of operations |
Comments |
| |
|
|
1. Prepare the workplace, make the working material available | |
| | |
|
2. Drill the central bore hole for the insertion of the square bolt into the head by drilling up to Æ 15.8 mm and spot-facing on both sides to 16.2 mm |
- Clamp the workpiece so that it cannot twist |
| | |
|
3. Ream the bore with the hand reamer to Æ 16 E 8 |
- Stage (1) |
| |
|
|
4. Insert the square bolt by hand |
- Clearance fit; mating parts move easily into each other |
| | |
|
5. Make the precision bore for the lock Æ 10 m 6 with the hand reamer Æ 10 H 8 |
- Stage (2) boring, countersinking, reaming |
| | |
|
6. Insert the slightly greased lock with the aluminium hammer |
- Interference fit; fitting together takes greater efforts |
| | |
|
7. Finish the precision bore for the fitting pin Æ 6 m 6 with the hand reamer Æ 6 H 8 |
- Stage (3) bore a hole which is stepped to the lock by 90° |
| |
|
|
8. Drive in the slightly greased fitting pin with the aluminium hammer |
- Interference fit |
| |
|
|
9. Check the interference fits for tightness (mating parts must be snugly fitting) | |
