ejparrott Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 What size are the heads on the drive flange bolts supposed to be? On all mine a 5/8 socket is far too loose, and a 15mm is damn tight...what are they supposed to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffR Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Got one of the new flanged hobbies on my desk and it is M10x45, on my 110 salisbury 9/16 fits quite well on three, whilst 11/16 fits quite well on others.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon White Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 They are 3/8" BSF. You need either a 3/8bsf spanner or a 1/4Bsw. They work out at 15.24mm hence why a 15mm is too tight! Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
