8. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
8.1 OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS - FIG. 1
IMPORTANT:
Always use the correct size socket.
Apply a steady pull to the handle of the torque wrench. When the required torque is reached, this
will be indicated by the following:
1. Audible click:
NOTE: The click will be quieter at lower torque settings.
2. Touch:
The handle will be felt to “break away” at the point of the set torque.
WARNING: At low torque levels the “break away” will be very soft. Check on a
non-critical fastener before use so that you can familiarise yourself with this.
3. Visually:
The handle will be seen to "break away" at the point of the set torque.
WARNING: At low torque levels the “break away” will be very soft. Check on a
non-critical fastener before use so that you can familiarise yourself with this.
WARNING:
Never continue to pull on the torque wrench once the set torque is reached, as this will result in an
incorrect torque being applied and possible damage to parts.
If the torque wrench has not been used i.e. new or has been in storage for some time, operate it
several times at a low torque setting, which allows the internal lubrication to recoat working parts.
When the torque wrench is not in use, adjust to the lowest torque setting for storage.
Do not turn adjustment below lowest torque setting.
Never use the torque wrench to undo nuts, bolts or fasteners. This will result in the mechanism
being damaged.
The tool is rugged and designed for general use, but it is also a precision measuring instrument
and should be treated as such.
Clean wrench by wiping. Do not immerse in any type of cleaner which will affect the internal
lubrication.
Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to adjust or repair the torque wrench.
A full repair and calibration service is available on request. A charge will be made accordingly.
It is recommended that a re-calibration schedule is put in place by the user to ensure the torque
wrench is performing within its design criteria.
