Read the AFM more carefully, or better still, get yourself an up to date copy of the AFM from the manufacturer.
I wrote the AFM for the DHC-6, and a there is a recommendation for a simulated feather power setting is in the AFM. It is approximately 8 pounds indicated torque at typical single engine cruising speed of 100 to 110 knots. Note that this 8 pounds torque recommendation assumes your torque indicator is properly calibrated.
