I call it "spark plug tight", meaning finger tight then a quarter turn. I always used a shifter (adjustable spanner) just to give it a little nip up, taking care not to over tighten it.

Obviously for the average jo, VM cant afford for the HAM FISTED idiots amongst us to keep snapping off F connectors, so I suggest thats why they supply a plastic spanner.
