Make up your mind... finger tight or use the plastic spanner (which will still make it tighter than finger tight)
The actual torque figure I was taught was 15in/lbs (finger tight + one flat face) but looking at the available tools for the CTV industry it looks like it's now 20in/lbs
Do you think they'd be selling this otherwise

The plastic spanners will probably spread their jaws at about 12-15in/lbs hence they are supplied.
I really do hate it when telephone support pretend to be hands on techies
