For your reference, I've been adding torque specs on my site - either from FSM, or from manufacturer literature (as I get more, they'll go up. It's a side effect of my book research.) Click the link in my sig, and go to the Tech Archives.

The screws should be 1/4"-28x1" or so (that's what size they are on my D30s and D35s.) I usually replace them with socket heads - it's easier to use a hex key. And, since you're supposed to replace them every time they come out, I can just order up a box of 100 of them from MSC Direct and keep them on the shelf (and usually get good stuff - American or European, vice possibly "Made in China" crap.)
