Or start by hand and get 3-4 turns in before going to the wrench. Yes most folks aren't really good at safety wire, but it will keep the bolt from backing out. You also do not need to do every bolt you can do every other. Assuming the safety wiring is done correctly. I’d say it’s 50% of the pictures I see if a safety wire job where the wire is done incorrectly, which would allow the bolt to loosen even with the safety wire. |
