Right, well that's probably by far not tight enough to start with. Sugino suggest 40-50nm which is a lot tighter than you'll be able to get with a mini tool. Riding it loose may have ruined the taper now though.
PhilDAS-
out of curiosity, do you have any link to that recommendation? (might be useful for me in the future)

40-50nm
Isn’t hat equal to torquing with 40-50 kg and a 1 m wrench? To my knowledge you shouldn’t grease the crank bb interface to prevent the crank arm slide too far onto the spindle. Making me think 50 Nm could be too much.
Anyway, a 10 cm Allen key gave me another quarter of rotation on the screw, hope that will help!

Yeah, of course. By now to a point that I can’t tighten it any further with the leverage I have using a mini tool
@HK_Berlin I did not really check but the screw screws in smooth so I‘d say the threads are alright. But I’ll check it out!
@Heldring isn’t that the one thing you shouldn’t grease?
