I take it that your question relates to moving the stabilizer when the elevators are at large deflection thus generating high loads on the stabilizer jack screw. I did some looking to see if I could find any mention of how much force / torque is needed to turn the manual trim wheel but could not find any reference. All of the descriptions I have read speak to using this means of positioning the stabilizer when electric trim has been disabled, but do not mention how much force / torque is required.
