Please help
Please correct the sentence below.
"Tighten the adjustment nut to a point immediately before the torque lever starts moving."
or should it be
"Tighten the adjustment nut to a point immediately before where the torque lever starts moving." ?
What I want to say is the adjustment nut should be tightened to a certain point that does not make the lever moving, but if you tighten a little more, the lever starts moving.
"Tighten the adjustment nut to a point immediately before the torque lever starts moving."

"The adjustment nut should be tightened until just before the torque lever starts to move."
would probably be a better way of phrasing it.

Hi,
I suggest this.
"Tighten the adjustment nut until the torque lever starts to move. Then back it off very slightly."
Best wishes, Clive
