Did a bit of mtce on my sled's primary sheave. While installing the cover, the spec said to torque to 10 ft/pds. As I was torquing, (I always start lower and work upwards). I was at 6 when it felt like this was a lot for the size of the bolts (M6 x 30). Sure enough, one of the bolts snapped. Luckily it snapped close to the head, not inside the helix. As far as I know my torque wrench is ok, did I do something wrong? TIA
