s'engager
Explanation:
Les vis à chapeau doivent s'engager facilement si le support d'arbre à cames est bien reposé selon les repères fait au démontage.
Le "draw" vient peut-être de ce que les vis font descendre la pièce le long des cannelures mentionnées dans l'extrait de contexte

agree  Tony M: Yes, sort of: it means once they have been started, they don't 'bind' as you start screwing them up and they pull the two parts together; it's the SECOND stage in the screwing process, not the first.
