The normal things they say are tight enough that there’s no play but loose enough to move freely, doesn’t help too much !
If your milling then probably on the tighter side, milling in lathes generally is asking a lot , all the forces are in the wrong directions, usually with lathe work all the forces are going down toward the bed ,, so it absorbs a lot of it , when milling in the lathe thats not the case , hence the need for smaller cutters and lighter cuts ,
Hope that helps . . . .
