What is the purpose of the screw on top? Do you have to tighten it to keep the hook in the closed position?

You have to screw it in the first time you use it. Then it just clicks in to keep the hook closed.

It's not necessary to close it; it controls how "tight" the closing is, though. The hook stays closed by the end of that screw slipping into slight indentation on the top of the bracket, so if it's not staying closed very well, you can tighten the screw so it's more secure.

There is a plastic screw that is flush within the top tier. Someone posted a picture of the screw being used to secure the bottom tier. It is the same screw used to secure the top tier when fully assembled.

To me, the key is in putting some weight on the hooks, or just pulling on them, as you have the locking mechanism disengaged. Keeping it disengaged is about holding the rope at the correct angle to get the locking arm to stay away from the rope. Once it is disengaged, just hold the angle and pull the hooks down.

Yes. It doesn't come with the hardware for that but you can buy a screw in hook. Very simple :)

I would say with the hook concealed. When open the top part of the hook that is extended goes about 4 inches out from the wall. I love this thing. Hope that helped..

the tines and the top hook are aligned, so if you want the tines flush but the hook to poke out it's not going to work. If you want the hook aligned with the wall/fence that's what this will do. I don't think the top can be twisted in relation to the tines either.

Unless there was a mistake at the factory, there is ONE screw already included INSIDE the damper assembly. You attach the damper to the cabinet, and snap the thing closed. I am betting you haven't opened the damper to see the screw! The way its' made the screw can't fall out. Good luck!

There is a closed loop so a hook is not needed, but it really depends on where you are hanging it. The tree branch my feeder is on is very thick, so I use a hook. This is the hook I use http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000HHM43W?cache=ca2fa0ab5f9026c637a6d291178931c6#ref=mp_s_a_1_1&qid;=1393265549&sr;=8-1 there are 2 sizes available

It doesn't have a hook but what you could do is drill a small hole in the top and put a piece of strong string in it and tie a knot to keep it from slipping back out the hole and hang it like that.

Its for torquing. not tightening. Many people do, but you will throw off the torque calibration!

There's a spring latch between the hooks to prevent the hooks from popping up and off.

It basically works by physically blocking how much of the nail you expose to the cutting device. There is not need to tighten the screw. It can be swung out of the way if you don't want to use it. Basically it is just a simple safety device to keep you from cutting too much nail at once.

Yes. You screw down the base and the pole pivots to where you need it, and then tighten nut to lock down.

I just checked mine and it does have an opening in the tip of the handle to use a hook. I just don't know how secure it would hang. I guess depending on the type of hook you use.

The tighten is used as the fastener. It attached to clothes post on say a hook, and then the line is fed through its end where the ballbearing are. Hope this helps.

there is a slot on the bottom piece that you slide one of the provided nuts into. This makes it possible to tighten down the machine screw.

I don't collapse the handle to hang it, I leave it extended. I will upload pictures on the site to show this, but basically I can hang it by the top of the handle, just put the hook between the handle and the lever, so that it doesn't pull on the lever, OR you can hang it by the middle bar if you have exposed studs (the pictures will show how to do this).
