Engineering term - Screw it home, means what exactly?



screw until it stops without undue force


Force the bastard up until it goes no further


screw up until resistance felt



It's the instructions for my cream maker on Kenny the mixer.

Is that not the same as " nip it up" or just a gnats?
Not to be confused with " just a bawhair more".

Is this a short version of what you say when your enfield breaks down yet again, SCREW IT lets push it home, lol

Or as the instructions for my friends Chinese electric bike states " do not ride on full power up gradient or engine will become ill!"

Mark, you there Mark?

Yeah? What? Been working away in South Africa. Lovely weather, just back to Northamptonshire and it's bleak as bleak can be out there. In answer to your question, option 3 is my guess, until resistance is felt. Is there a spring washer or other locking device on it?

Fully tighten without undue force.
