Torque specifications
WARNING: Respecting and controlling the correct torque on fasteners is important
for your safety. If too little force is applied the component will not hold safely and if too
much force is applied the component thread could deform and break.
Therefore, not respecting the torque specification of any component could result in
failure, which can cause loss of control and fall.
