The manual shows 7 ft/lbs. If you are using a cork type gasket, be careful not to pinch and break it when tightening. Actually, if you have a cork gasket, I would recommend getting a composite type. Install the drain plug via the gasket, and tighten it the specified torque. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
