theoretically, the bolts for the clutch springs should bottom out on the pins into which they screw in. As for torque settings, no idea. I've just always "nipped" mine up, without overdoing it...
which is probably of no value at all..

^^ thanks thump140

i thought they should bolt up tight. just wasnt sure if they had to have some slack in them for return springs to work. Ive just nipped them up, dummy fitted the clutch cover case and had a play with release fork... everything feels ok..

yeah even with the bolts hard up against the posts, the springs will still um, spring... lol..
you can use a teeeeeeny bit of loctite if you wanted to, but i've never had the need...
