    Torque specs on power pole bolts?

    spent the last 30 minutes searching, trying to find torque specs for all bolts.

    There are no Torque specs...Tighten the 2 lower stern bracket lock nuts snug and all other lock nuts flush with the end of bolt with no threads showing. This should be checked/done every 100 cycles of the Pole(s).

    Mine loosen up after every single trip. Only a couple months old too. The actual poles themselves. They flop all over the place when I'm driving down the road.

    From the actual poles. The two main long pieces that sandwich the cylinder. Those get sloppy right after I tighten them.
