I was just reading the manual in a few places and found this grammar oddity.
It's the type of humor like something Hawkeye Pierce would have said in a MASH episode but it slipped in here. Like out of a Groucho movie
Page 1-23, para. 6, second sentence
"While holding adjuster screw with an allen wrench, tighten jam nut to 72-120 in-lbs (8.1-13.6Nm), while holding adjusting screw with an Allen wrench."
Disclaimer: I didn't read this as being against the Forum rules about quoting this in the manual and submit it purely for it's humor.

people that let go of the allen wrench while adjusting jam nut because they're too dumb to follow instructions and then complained about the instructions now being clear enough.
