Mend Fluidmaster 740 Toilet Valve Leak

Fluidmaster Side Entry Inlet (euro fitting)?

Just replaced a faulty Torbeck valve with a fluidmaster version which didn't come with any instructions. Tightened up on the brass shank but it is leaking somewhat and there doesn't appear to be any more tightening available. Should I use some PTFE tape ? Is there any adjustment I can make ?
