Yes, about as tight as you can get it with your fingers then turn it out 1.5 turns. Which, in my experience, comes out to be the same as tighten until you feel resistance and 1/2 a turn out like the older Japan sleds. The 14 manual showed finger tight than only 1/2 turn out which was a full turn too tight.
