Default cassette clockwise arrow 40 nm

itsnot muscle ...the tightness is goal. 26 pounds isnot TIGHT TIGHT....35 pounds is TIGHT TIGHT ...Shimano wants you to squeeze the parts together snug and tight but not bend the assembly.

lubricating threads with locktite helps give an accurate reading. dry threads give an inaccurate reading.

if finding a torque wrench drill holes in a hardwood board n mount various size nuts/bolts/washers n torque down to see what ...compare to trying for 26 pounds without the torque wrench.
