Bolted on te Tie-down Bar to the Main Spar

Before attaching the tie-down bar, I put primer on it. I didn't know if I was supposed to, so I did it anyway. I put the 4 outer bolts on first and used my torque wrench to set the nut. Then I bolted the bellcrank brackets on the underside of the main spar into the nutplates. I once again used my torque wrench to set the bolts at the same setting for plastic lock nuts. I couldn't find what the torque wrench setting should be for bolting the bellcranks brackets into the nutplates should be in the instruction manual, so I assumed that it's the same as the bolts and nuts setting.
