Help Reading Service Manual Torque Values

[TWG1572]

I used to know this and use it so infrequently I've forgotten. It's been several years. What do the values mean to the right of #13 in the picture I've attached? I think the first is N-m, and the last is ft pounds. Not sure what the middle is.
Thank you!

I'm assuming ones inch pounds, foot pounds, and Newton meteres?

The middle is kilogram-meters.

In order,
Newton-meters (kilogram-meters, foot-pounds)

There must be a page in this manual explaining this. If you have to guess, may as we'll throw this thing out.

I agree with krisz. Find the key in your manual as there is no standard that I am aware of. Usually they are listed in SAE and metric but SAE could be ftlb or inlb (factor of 12) and metric in Nm.

+1 Thats what it is, standard rounded off values. 10 mkgs=100 Nm, mkgsx10 is Nm.
Kilograms is obsolete for the most part but some countries still use it.

102.5 Newton Meters = 10.4 Kilogram Meters = 76 Ft Lb

www.PMEL.ORG has a conversion calculator for almost any measurement you can think of.

At the bottom of every picture in my factory Nissan manual is the key telling you which is which.
