Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Incorrect sheet orientation leading to lubrication flow obstruction.Always confirm the intended flow path for lubricants before installation and ensure the sheet is oriented correctly to facilitate this.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing deformation of the sheet.Use calibrated torque wrenches to secure the sheet, avoiding excessive pressure that could warp the material.
