65. Holding the load cell by the central beam, screw the stud into the load cell

(from same side as connecting wire). As thread becomes available, screw on
the nut.

66.  Tighten the load cell stud into position using a 2mm Allen key.
67.  Tighten nut with spanner (possibly modified to fit into load cell).
68.  Note: 1000 & 2500N load cells have no hole (use pliers) and the 5N and 2.5N

have no nut (just screw stud in with Loctite applied).

IMPORTANT: Clean any Loctite residue from the stud, load cell and nut.
