DIGITAL GAUGE OPERATION
This device has been designed to measure right-hand/left-hand torque or angle values on screws and
nuts in combination with ratchets or levers.
Two driving torque measurement modes are available:
PEAK HOLD: the display shows the instant driving torque, the maximum achieved value being shown
at the end.
TRACK: the display only shows the instant driving torque; after the measurement has been completed,
the gauge is ready for a new measurement. When the set value is reached, the LED indicator will turn
on and the buzzer will sound.
• Lay the gauge on a flat surface and press the ON button (C). When the symbol
0000
is shown on the
display, wait a few seconds.
NB: Do not move the gauge while setting the required value.
• After the required value has been set, the display will show the previously set torque or angle.
• Press button U/S to change the unit of measurement of the torque or select the value in degrees.
Set the new torque or angle value by pressing buttons and . The new selected value will
automatically be saved. Then press button (M).
• Place the socket with the ratchet on the gauge. Tightening can then be started.
• When 80% of the selected value is reached, the first green LED will turn on and the buzzer will sound.
• When the maximum set value is reached, the red LED will turn on.
• In the PEAK HOLD mode, press button (M) to store the value of the driving torque or angle
(max. stored values: 50). The number where the value has been stored will blink on the display.
CAUTION: In the PEAK HOLD mode, if the tightening process is interrupted for a few seconds, the
display will blink, showing the value reached upon interruption. When the tightening process is
resumed, the value will be calculated from the value reached before.
• To reset the device and start a new measurement, press button (C).
If the device is not used for approximately 2 minutes, the device will automatically turn off.
SETTING UP MENU
Press button (C) to turn the gauge on.
Keep button (U/S) pressed to enter the configuration menu. Press button (U/S) several times to enter
the menus: PEAK HOLD/TRACK, UNITS OF MEASUREMENT OF DRIVING TORQUE AND ANGLES,
TORQUE MEMORIES, RESETTING TORQUE MEMORIES and TIGHTENING COUNT.
To quit the configuration menu and go back to the preset memories, press button (U/S) again.
PEAK HOLD/TRACK MENU
• During the tightening process, the instant driving torque will be displayed.
• In the PEAK HOLD mode, upon release, the maximum reached value will be displayed.
• In the TRACK mode, upon release, the maximum preset value will be displayed.
The gauge is ready for a new tightening process.
• The TRACK mode does not allow the reached values to be stored.
• In the PEAK mode, the display will show ModE and, in the right bottom corner, a P.
If the display is in the TRACK mode, it will show a T.
• Press buttons and to change the mode.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.
TORQUE UNIT OF MEASUREMENT MENU FOR MEASURING ANGLES
• When angles are measured, the device will also measure the simultaneously applied driving torque.
• When the tightening process has been completed, if the device is in the PEAK HOLD mode, the torque
and angle values will be displayed alternatively.
• This menu allows the unit of measurement of the torque to be selected.
CAUTION: When the value of the device is saved, only the angle will be recorded, whereas the torque
will not.
• The display will show A-UI and, on the right, the currently selected unit of measurement.
• Press buttons and to change the unit of measurement.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.
