not sure what you mean, as you just turn the wheel/axle and line them up

but, first STOP

take each bolt out and inspect it carefully - use a magnifier if you have to

look at the threads to make sure they are in good shape & the wrenching fixture in the head

then go buy some brake cleaner and clean the threads on each cap screw of all oil, grease etc.

also clean the female threads inside the thing the cap screws go into - use Q-tips with brake cleaner on them & clean until the Q-tips shows NO grease after cleaning

you will do this while you are waiting for new Schnorr washers to arrive as they must be replaced each time

search on Schnorr for more info

use a good torque wrench whose calibration you have checked
