Re: [doc] Pulley Nut Help

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The manual says that when the nut goes back on, one should use Loctite. 
This is a very silly thing to do! Unfortunately you may find this has 
happened and in which case the usual recipe of heat, penetrant and 
holding the impact wrench on it for a good 2 minutes does not work. 
You're left with the choice of cutting the nut off.
