• Secures knobs, control housings and small assemblies to prevent wobble or misalignment.
• Restores proper fit for components so doors and access panels sit evenly and function reliably.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit) before accessing components.
• Use the correct driver and tighten by hand; avoid overtightening to prevent stripped threads or cracked plastic.
• Keep any original washers or clips and reinstall them with the screw.
