value. When the desired value is selected, press
to select the next numeric place to
the right.
Example: for a torque setting of
75 lb/ft
, the display should read 075.0.
NOTE:
Even though the torque value can be set to 9999, do not exceed the rated maximum range.
3.
Once the target torque is set, press the button to memorize and exit setting mode.
NOTE:
1.
“Erro” (for ERROR will show on the display when the pre-set torque value exceeds 100% of the
maximum torque value. After 1 second, the display returns to torque Measurement Mode.
2.
After pressing the “+” button to access the torque setting mode, without any activity after 6
seconds, the display will return to Measurement Mode.
TRACK / PEAK MODE SETTING
1.
“TRACK”
is the default mode when the Torque Adapter is turned on.
2.
Press and release button to shift into
“ PEAK”
mode.
“PEAK”
appears on the left side of
the display.
3.
In
“TRACK”
mode: the display shows the reading in real time during the torquing process.
4.
In
“PEAK”
mode: The maximum value reached during use will be saved and the value is
shown steadily on the display for approx. one second. After that, the value changes to fl ashing
and you can continue directly to the next application
or
press the button to zero the

In order to do this, press and hold the button for 2 seconds.
OPERATING THE TORQUE ADAPTER
1.
Always slowly and steadily
PULL
to gradually build torque. Avoid quick jerky movements.
2.
When you approach the programmed torque value
the buzzer will sound and the RED light
will fl ash.
3.
When close to (within 2% of) the programmed value,
the buzzer will emit a quicker sound
and fl ash sequence.
4.
When the programmed torque has been achieved, the buzzer will emit a
continuous tone and
the RED light will steadily illuminate.
NOTE:
When the force is applied counter-clockwise, the display will show a minus (-) sign in the
left side of screen.
NOTE:
1. NEVER USE THE TORQUE ADAPTER WHEN THE BATTERIES ARE LOW. THE ACCURACY OF
READINGS WILL BE AFFECTED.
2.
The display will not show a reading until the applied force has exceeded 10% of full scale.
3.
“- - - -”
will be shown on the screen, when applied torque has exceeded 5% of the maximum
of torque value. (See specifi cations).
