HANDLING 

 

CAUTION  -  Unpacking: Your  GYROTORK  torque  gauge  has been supplied in its carrying case. Check 
that  it  has  not  been  damaged  during  transport.  If  you  have  any  doubt,  please  contact  us  and  our 
service  support  will  you  guide  you  through  simple  checks  to  ensure  that  the  gauge  has  not  been 
damaged. 

 

1.

 

Unpacking 

 
The GYROTORK gauge is supplied with:  
 

 

A carrying case (according to your setup) 

 

A power plug adaptor 

 

A torque Certificate of calibration 

 

2.

 

Recommendation before first use 

a.

 

Battery 

 
The battery reaches its maximum capacity after several charges. 

This is very important!

 A new 

torque gauge has a battery that does not have its full capacity at the first power on. The torque 
gauge will shut down automatically if the battery is too low. 
 
The battery life is 8 hours under normal use. The gauge should be charged after normal use. You 
should charge it every 3 weeks, to ensure maximum life of the batteries. 
It is recommended to use the original power adaptor supplied by ANDILOG Technologies. The power 
adaptor has the following specifications: 12V, 1.5A 
 

b.

 

Sensor 
 

In spite of its mechanical protection, sensor overload can damage the instrument. The 
instrument  stops  if  its  capacity  has  been  exceeded  10  times.  If  you  overload  it  10 
times, you have to return it to ANDILOG TECHNOLOGIES for checking. 
 

It is important that measured values are under 90% of the sensor

’s

 capacity

.  

 

c.

 

Test Stand 

 
The  display  can  be  affixed  to  a  test  stand  via  two  M5  or  two  10-32  screws,  which 
should not extend through the back cover more than 3 mm. Please contact ANDILOG Technologies if 
you need more information or if you need a fixture to mount your torque gauge to a test stand. 

 

d.
