thread inward until the RED and BLACK Thumb Screw Caps seat flush to the front edge 
of the Power Star Element.  You may now fully tighten the thumb screws.  The thumb 
screws should be fully tightened down with adequate thumb pressure to insure good

be tightened down fairly tight using your thumb and finger.  Tightening using tools is
