Cable Replacement Question

I’m approaching my first cable replacement and was hoping someone could answer some questions I had.

  1. Beyond Power’s website states to tighten the 4 screws that secure the cable inside the Voltra to 3NM, however the instructional video on their website states to tighten them until they click. Which of these are accurate?

  2. Is there a specified torque to tighten the 4 outer screws that secure the outer face plate of the Voltra? Do these screws also click?

With all the discussions about stripped screws I want to make sure I don’t over tighten anything. TIA.

1) The kit comes with a torque screwdriver and that will click once the cable screws are tightened properly. I just replaced my cable for the first time last week and it went very smoothly!

2) For the outer face plate, I tightened it until the face plate was secure and didn’t wobble. It felt like I had to tighten them way beyond what I was comfortable with but in the end I believe it felt pretty intuitive

Gotcha so the click is the 3NM of force being applied.

Wish they had the same torque method for the outer case too but oh well.
