Installing Summit/KH Cranks

Yes, the crank bolts help position the cranks properly, the pinch bolts
hold them in place 🙂

Should have done a search first. Here is John Childs advice for anyone
who needs it.

Quoted message said:

Remove the cranks from the hub
Put some anti-seize on the splines, covering all surfaces where the
crank comes in contact with the hub
Remove the two bolts on each crank
Put some anti-seize on the threads of all the bolts
Put the right crank on and get the axle bolt snug but not super
tight
Put the left crank on and get the axle bolt snug but not super tight
Tighten the axle bolt on the right crank
Tighten the axle bolt on the left crank
Now tighten the pinch bolts on each crank

I can add that the pinch bolts should be QUITE tight. If any crank
moves with respect to the wheel AND with respect to the other crank,
than most likely the pinch bolt needs further tightening. Been there,
done that, and was quite puzzled for a while because they were already
"tight".
