Default AP1 belt tensioner torque spec?

Hello, I just recently replaced my belt tensioner along with a new belt on my AP1 using a write up (DIY) here on s2ki. It was for the AP2 though.
A pretty straight forward job, take the belt off, and take off the 2 bolts holding the tensioner (1x#6Hex and 1x12mm bolt)
The torque spec I believe is 16 ft lbs for both. I set them to 20 ft lbs which is the lowest setting for my torque wrench. Am I good?? I didn't strip threads or anything

Page 4-44 in the Service Manual. Yeah, it's easier to just ask than look it up.

Mechanical torque wrenches are most accurate in the middle of their ranges. Pick up a smaller one for low torque applications.
