FSA Headset allen bolt torque

Hey guys, so I'm fixing up a Norco 125 for my gf to ride around on.

I had to install a new stem and bars and while i was there i figured I would clean and regrease the headset. The headset as per norco is:

1 1/8" integrated FSA TH-855

My question now is, what would I tighten the luck nut/allen and what would be a safe torque spec?

I don't want to go full crazy and tighten it too much without damaging the bearings and headset.

This is the allen bolt i am referencing.
