Adjustable Torque Screwdriver
Operating Instructions
The IDEAL INDUSTRIES, INC. adjustable torque screwdrivers are designed and manufactured to provide consistent user-settable torque in varying
assembly or maintenance applications. These tools meet or exceed ASME B107.300-2010 and ISO 6789 specifications of +/- 6% preset value accuracy
from 20% to 100% of capacity, and +/- 1.2% of capacity below 20% of capacity. These tools meet or exceed this requirement in both the clockwise and
counter-clockwise directions.
Our adjustable torque screwdrivers signal the operator that the torque setting has been attained by emitting a distinct audible and tactile impulse (click”).
These adjustable torque screwdrivers do have graduations and the torque must be set to the desired level before use.

b. Rotate the Torque Adjusting Key clockwise (CW) to increase the torque setting.
c. Rotate the Torque Adjusting Key counter-clockwise (CCW) to decrease the torque setting.
4. When the desired torque is directly under the Lens Line, fold the Torque Adjusting Key back to thestored and locked position. If desired, use the
enclosed screw to affix the Torque Adusting Key inplace.
5. Replace the black vinyl cap on the rear of the screwdriver.
Operating The Screwdriver
1. Set torque per procedure above.
2. Insert the bit (or adapter and socket) into bit holder on end of shaft.
3. Engage fastener completely with bit (or socket).4.Rotate screwdriver steadily until “click” is heard and felt. Further rotation will not tighten fastener
