Agreed with HeMan except it fits on at least 2 ways correctly.

6 N-m. Since I dont torque it with torque wrench at that those values (you are begging to break something unless you have a very accurate one)

I dab some green or blue loctit, get the bolt set with the allen key as a lever arm (if you inmagine it as an L shape, the shorter leg of the L goes into the bolt). i turn with my fingers gently until it stops then i give it about a 1/6-1/4 of a turn with my finger on the longer arm and call it a day. if you dont put locktit on it, the bolt can come loose from all the rattling and well, you will sheer a post as it spins.

quick question, about to fit some a new pressure plate on the bike... but the manual says to lubricate the threads with engine oil, not to use loctite.  i can see loctite making more sense... but does anyone know why they say engine oil instead?

Maybe they say to do that so the bolt isn't binding up as you tighten it and you are getting a true torque reading on your wrench.

That and to prevent corrosion.  In theory the spring will keep the screw from backing out if it is torqued correctly.  Green locktite is pretty weak, I see no problem using it if it gives you peace of mind.  More than one person on this board has had a screw or two rattle loose
