According to my interpretation of the manual the front is 60~65N.m and rear is 70~75N.m

There is mention in the manual (section 5-18) of a "especial tools and method 2-15" for releasing the nuts (yes I saw you used a rattle gun) so I am thinking the same special tool will be needed to hold them for cranking to correct torque settings.
Again looking in the manual at special tools (section 1-17) tool 2 is a "CVT Standstill Locking" used for "remove/install CVT Driver,driven plate nut.

Could this be one of these? http://thirdgear.com.au/adjustable-pulley-holder/
And if so do you see slots in the case where the tines/prongs could be inserted?

The reason I am asking is because I dont have a rattle gun and one to do the job here will cost $100 or more
I do have sockets, breaker bars and torque wrench already so if this $25 tool works i'll get it instead.

Yeah, on further investigation that tool above won't help get the CVT cover off but this thread on a vespa forum may.
It shows a similar CVT cover to the Jetmax and how they get their cover off without a rattle gun - very simple

As PM'd I didn't use a torque wrench at all. Just used the portable Milwaukee electric impact driver, and marked the nut and surrounding surface. Have had the CVT apart up to half a dozen times, and my method seems to work okay. Mate has done the same or similar on his Jetmax. Don't think there needs to be too much over-thinking. The Modern Vespa link looks interesting and might be a viable option. Let us know how you get on should you try it...
