Assistance with installation of roof crossbars

[VWCampers]

I just purchased (on EBay) a set of cross bars for my roof rails on my 2001 Passat Wagon. Unfortunately, no installation instructions came with the bars. I have the bars, the keys, an allen wrench and what I believe is called a torque spanner.

I have figured out how to install the rails, but am wondering what I am supposed to do with the torque spanner. I imagine that is used to test the torque on the allen screw at the ends of the rails, though I do not know how to use this tool.

Does anyone have a set of instructions that you could scan and send along? If not, is anyone familiar with the installation and could guide me through with your description? I believe the part number is 3B0 071 151 009. It has the rubber top imbedded on the cross bars.

I will be carrying a canoe on these rails and want to make sure I have a correct installation.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Are these the runners that run from front to back, or a roof rack that runs driver side to passenger?
If it's a roof rack, what brand is it?

These are the VW cross bars that go from driver side to passenger side. They are a VW accessory. They attach to the existing front-to-rear roof rails.

There is a free standing allen wrench that enables positioning of the cross bar "latches", relative to the rails permanently attached to the roof.

The other tool is a long allen wrench with some sort of torque meter, with readings of 0, 6 & 9. I am guessing that the idea is to tighten these allen screws to a given torque, affixing the cross bars to the rail. This wrench goes in the end of the cross bar (after removing the keyed lock housing). Turning the wrench closes the gap and tightens the latch to the rail.

Without directions, I am not sure how to interpret the gauge a the end of long allen wrench. What reading should I use as the appropriate torque?
