Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the mating threads (nut or tapped hole) are clean and free from debris. 2. Hand-thread the cap screw to confirm alignment and prevent cross-threading. 3. Using an appropriately sized wrench (fitting the 21mm head width), tighten the cap screw to the specified torque value, avoiding over-tightening.
