Torque specs for mounting the spindle

Is there a recommended value for the two bolts on the mount? I was installing it yesterday and was concerned not to crash the spindle by the mount. On the other hand I do not want it to move in the mount. So.. how much torque?

Actually, it would be better if we have torque specs for everything. Like for those set screws on the Z-slider for the bottom plate. They are scary to undo but then it is a guess game to tighten them back. …

Hand tight is enough.

:slight_smile: Sorry to be a pain, but hand tight to me is doing it without a wrench. I would not expect it to be enough.

I think I am getting what you mean. But still, if I use the short leg of the hex wrench as the lever, and go as tight as I can, would it be still “safe” for the spindle?
