If you are afraid of breaking off an Allen key, either use a small adjustable spanner [shifter]on the key, at a 45 degree angle across
the 90 degree bend in the key, so the torque is only on a short section of the key, and it therefore won't twist, and possibly snap off, or get a short straight Allen key that clicks onto the square end of the appropriate ratchet type tool.
