| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size wrench, leading to stripped hex heads. | Always use a correctly sized wrench or socket that fits snugly onto the hex head to prevent damage. |
| Overtightening, which can strip threads or weaken the fastener. | Consult engineering drawings or torque charts for the appropriate tightening specification and use a torque wrench if critical. |
