Assemble: 
1.  Important note: remove residues of old Loctite in screw holes with a M3 or M4 tap tool for threads 
before assembling the joint to get the correct torque on the new screws.

old screws carefully clean the screws and attach Loctite 648 on the screws before assembly. 
 
3.  Important note: Always replace the black flexible flat ring to maintain the IP classification.
