Installation Procedure

1. Select the appropriate wrench or socket for the 13mm hex head. 2. Align the screw with the pre-tapped hole or mating component. 3. Thread the screw by hand for the initial few turns to prevent cross-threading, then apply torque with the wrench until snug. 4. Tighten to the required torque specification, ensuring a secure and stable joint.
