| * It's very important to hold the crank on the pinion side with an appropriate pinion locking tool whenever you take the pinion nut off or put it on.If you hold the crank still from the primary side (or by putting the bike in gear and holding the brake), the twisting torque applied to the pinion nut gets transmitted through the crank, from one side to the other. The crank pin is not designed to resist much twisting force. You'll risk scissoring the crankshaft (knocking the crank out of true), which requires a full tear-down to fix.
