Tightening Torques For Screw Connections 

  Only use provided tools or appropriate tools for assembly. A torque 

wrench for example, to tighten the screw connections as otherwise the screws could shear off 

or break. 

NOTE:

   If you tighten screws too tightly, this could damage the components. You should 

therefore always observe the prescribed tightening torque.
