Calibration of Unit
Periodic calibrations are required in order to maintain a high standard of accuracy. In most applications a
6-12 month calibration interval is acceptable. Please contact your local distributor or the manufacturer
when your unit is due for calibration.
Performing a Hard Reset
A hard reset can be performed by pressing the button located inside the hole on the back of the
torque tester while the unit is unplugged. After the reset button has been pressed, the unit will not turn
on until it is plugged in again. The calibration state and profiles will remain unchanged, but this
operation will reset the clock and all other settings to their default values.
