As someone who works in manufacturing this makes prefect sense and wish more instructions were this clear

How 🤨... tighten, but don't...

[-] Petter1@lemm.ee 6 points 5 hours ago

Tighten them but tighten them not too much but make sure not to tighten them too less, I guess

[-] babybus@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 hours ago

Tighten but don't overtighten them, probably.

It means “put all of the screws in the holes in order to start guiding the surfaces that you’re screwing together into the correct position, but don’t firmly tighten down all the screw until you have put all of them in so that you can ensure proper alignment of everything before you lock it in.”

Yeah, it's fairly obvious to me as well. That's basic assembly procedure, you don't tighten them fully until you have them all in place.

This manual will just confuse me, I'll just follow the assembly plan without actually reading it 😁.

Like put them in a few threads but don't tighten then yet until you complete the next step

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

That's "screw them in, but don't tighten them".
