From the. manual.

1. Chase and clean all threads
2. Bolts should be primered with Loctite 7649
3. Apply Loctite 277 to all threads
4. Torque all bolts in a star pattern to 40 ft lbs. Then finish off to 50 ft lbs.

I've never used the Loctite primer and never had an issue but I do clean all the threads.

Guess since you have the hubs off you will need the rest. Here it is:

Brake rotor - 25 ft lbs star pattern
Rear pulley - 60 ft lbs star pattern
Rear axle - 55-65 ft lbs
Front axle - 45 ft lbs
Front axle pinch bolts - 12 ft lbs
Belt tension - 1/4 - 1/2" deflection at 10 lbs of force with riders weight

I found out the hard way that the above spec for the brake rotor bolts to 50 ft lbs is incorrect. It is 25 ft lbs.
