Hello,

Start at the middle and then work your way out in a circle. Start by tightening them down to 25 foot pounds. The go to 47 and then finish at 75 and you are all set.

Here is a diagram (BELOW) to sow you how to do it.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
