i'm sure the instructions will say.&nbsp\\; there isn't anything behind the timer cover, it is simply for decoration, so you aren't dealing with any sealing surface/ gasket etc. I just installed mine by hand and didn't worry about any torque specs.

you don't need to worry about torque values for that... there's nothing there behind it....just tighten them down
