Simple way to make sure you don't cross thread a screw is to turn it in the direction you would to remove it till you feel a small click (that's called the Higbey notch, ask a firefighter) then screw it in and it shouldn't cross thread.
Thanks for posting this video. Good to see how this is done. I have a SCAR but have not needed as of yet to change the gas screw shooting suppressed. Do you find the 10:00 valve setting GTG for shooting with many suppressors? I see a lot of internet chatter that FN voids the SCAR warranty is shot suppressed but FN told me that would only happen if the suppressor usage was the actual cause of damage.
3:45 - WARNING: Midwest Gun Works guy, you are publishing BAD DATA that will cause stripped screw. I spoke with KNS precision after watching this, you are using their tool. 20-25 in-lb is WAY TOO MUCH. KNS states in their manual (and verbally) torque is only "finger tight" (5 in-lb if that). Same by PMM in his video. PLEASE edit this video!
Thanks for the easy install instructions!

Never knew the term for that - thanks.
Very cool the Midwest industries rail has to come off
Do all SCARs come with a gas regulator? How many positions does it have?
I have a 10" barrel on my SCAR, what size gas screw would you recommend when running an AAC M4-2000 suppressor?

Can you show how to do this on a SCAR 20s?
my guess is you would need to remove barrel from receiver and then follow these steps.
Assume it is the same for an FS2000?
If I'm doing this at the range, I'm gonna need a pocket full of gas screws.
