I just watched a video on YouTube where a FN rep demonstrates how to remove the barrel. When he retightened the barrel screws, he said the wrench was pre-set to 62 ft-lb. There's no way he can apply 62 ft-lb using that t-handle tool. Did he mean 62 in-lb? What is the correct spec for those screws?

He simply misspoke. It's 62 inch pounds.

Ok, that makes a lot more sense given the amount of leverage with the T-handle tool. I just wanted to make sure, because the FNH owner's manual for my SCAR 16S is absolutely useless for anything other than field stripping the rifle. There's no documentation resembling a LO or -10 TM.

Yep and if you ever need to order the tool, go to SeeKonk's website and order the BT-2L.  That's the tool you'll need, along w/ a #25 Torx head
