Dan, i remember going through this exercise about 13 years ago. I did find some 
tension numbers that seemed to apply to the cables on a KR. I bought a 
tensionometer and proceeded to set everything up. The numbers are way to much. 
I ended up doing it by feel and also tried getting a reading from the gauge 
after adjusting everthing and it did not even register on the meter. I have 
never had to adjust the cables since original set up and there is still no 
sloop in the system. My advice is to adjust to a no sag and no sloop in the 
movement. I adjusted until I had instant response (movement) from either the 
elevator, rudder , or alirons. As  a side note to this I had installed the 
Dynon AP a few years ago. The slight drag on the servos dampened the 
sensitivity but has no impact on the responsiveness.

I've searched the KR manual for a cable tension number. ???  Any advice or
direct knowledge?
