What happens here
With the actuator block removed, the loose hydraulic connector (an Allen head/Torx head bolt) is now fully accessible. The presenter tightens this specific connector. He also checks other adjacent fittings to ensure they are secure. He clarifies that for these tapered threads, Teflon tape is not technically necessary for a seal, but acknowledges that persistent leaks might eventually require a sealant.
Goal: Secure all loose hydraulic connections on the actuator block
