How much torque on New Generation slab weights?

How tight should the nuts go when installing slab weights on the front of New Generation tractors? Any danger of cracking the castings?
And no washers or lock washers, right? Just the nuts?
 
Use lock washers and get them Tight. We used a socket and breaker bar. You cannot crack those heavy castings with a wrench. Use 5/8 carriage-head bolts.
 
Also use at least a grade 5 carriage bolt. If you over tighten the soft bolts the heads will pop off
