Blade bolts always tighten in the direction of rotation. It doesn't take
any torking at all. Just barely snug them with a wrench and they'll tighten
themselves. Unless they are the splined type of blade that is. And not
putting anti-seize on blade bolts is just stupid. They can seize in there
something fierce if you don't.

And never, ever, under any circumstances apply a lube such as 5-56 or wd40
or even oil to the threads. This will cause the blade nuts to over torque
from the spin. Always torque dry blade nuts to manufacturers specs and you
will have no trouble removing them.
