Proper Wheel Torque? NH manual gives 2 specs

[sweep]

I have a TC45A. On page 3-27 of the owners manual it says front & rear wheel torque is 95 foot lbs.

The specification page it says the front & rear wheel torque is 125 foot lbs.


Which one is correct?

Thanks

I think my 2120 calls for 137 - 159#. 95 is more in the car range, so I'd go with the higher torque, as the bolts are bigger than a car's. 2120 is only a bit bigger than yours.

Page 3-27 in my older TC45D manual from 2001 says the torque for both front and rear wheel lugs is 125 ft-lb. I think that's your number.

I set the torque wrench to 125 and it clicked. Went up to 130, clicked.

Set it at 145 and it clicked and I stopped there

There was no movement at those settings.

I figure the dealer or the factory did not want them to come loose anytime soon.
