(2) Using wrench, tighten adjusting screw to 8 N·m (72 in. lbs.).
(3) Back–off adjusting screw 2 1/4 turns. Hold adjusting screw in this position and tighten locknut to 47 N·m (35ft. lbs.)

LOW/REVERSE BAND
(1) Loosen and back off locknut approximately five turns.
(2) Using an inch-pound torque wrench, tighten adjusting screw to 5 N·m (41 in. lbs.).
(3) Back–off adjusting screw 3 1/2 turns. (4) Tighten locknut to 14 N·m (10 ft. lbs.).
