I’m looking at the T-Nuts on the “Table Axis”, as installed at the factory, holding the stepper motor mount plate and they are crooked and not disturbing the clamp force as designed.

I’d like to fix, but is there are torque value these need to be set to? Is there any cautions needed to take while fixing?

They work the same straight or crooked. I’d leave it unless it bothers you
