6 turns takes less measured effort
now climb up that ladder and try to spin your clamped vise grips around a complete turn, with the awning up against the RV
or try to hold the end of the cap single handed while you shift the grip of your channel locks every half turn
that six turns is on the ground before mounting, and you 'pin' so it can't spin before you lift it up to mount it
maybe 'you' can do it with the awning up against the RV, but not me, even with (2) pairs of large channel locks to try and alternate with, doing the grip and spin and hold in place, while changing grip
