What happens here

With all anchor bolts partially inserted, use a ratchet wrench to firmly tighten each bolt. Ensure the post base is pulled tight against the concrete surface without overtightening, which could damage the concrete or the bolt. The base should be completely stable and unmoving once all bolts are tightened.

Goal: Fully secure the metal post base to the concrete.
