How do you tighten locking nuts?

To tighten locking nuts, first ensure you have the correct size wrench or socket for the nut. Begin by turning the nut clockwise until it is snug, applying steady pressure to avoid stripping the threads. If the locking nut has a specific torque specification, use a torque wrench to achieve the recommended tightness. Lastly, always check that the nut is secure and not loose after initial tightening.
