[Closed] Octalink crank installation. Help !!

After successfully removing my Shimano Octalink cranks, installing a new sealed bottom bracket I am now going out of my mind in how to install the cranks. I removed said cranks with the Park Tool CWP-7. Is this the right tool for refitting, if so could someone please offer advice.

The frustrating thing is that I have successfully installed these cranks about a year ago and can't for the life of me remember how I did it. Youtube and Google offers little support.

thanks in anticipation..

No tool required. Just stick them on and do up the Allen bolts.

Erm...you just bolt them on, like square taper, with an 8mm allen key?
