According to my manual, the plunger knife should be torqued to 98 -133 Nm at the three mounting points. However, I can’t see how a torque wrench would fit to torque the uppermost nut to the spec.

Am I missing something? Any tips greatly appreciated.

Learn how to use a double wrenching procedure using the next larger wrench size than what fits the fastener, and with modest effort you can get it tight enough with the box end of a wrench.

Is there any risk of cracking the blade?
