1/2" DRIVE TORQUE WRENCH
25-250 FT/LBS.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Apply the desired socket to the 1/2" square drive.
Place the socket over the nut or bolt.
2. Set the ratcheting direction (torque is only measured in
the clockwise direction).
3. Tighten the nut or bolt. As the bolt becomes tighter,
slow the operation to a steady, smooth pace.
NOTE: Operating too quickly or abruptly may cause the
operator to miss the exact torque setting.
4. When the desired torque setting is reached (see setting
instructions above), the wrench will provide an audible
“CLICK”.
NOTE: The audible “CLICK” can be subtle at lower torque
settings. Use in a quiet environment.
5. STOP tightening the nut or bolt immediately after the
torque setting is reached.
NOTE: Overtightening the nut or bolt past the desired
torque setting will damage the torque wrench.
NOTE: DO NOT use to loosen/break free stuck fasteners,
as this will damage the torque wrench.
STORAGE
1. Loosen the Lock Nut.
2. Rotate the handle counterclockwise until the “0” mark
on the Micrometer Scale meets the lowest setting
25 Ft/Lbs. on the Main Scale.
NOTE: The torque wrench should not be set below the
lowest torque setting.
3. Store in a clean, dry environment. DO NOT store near
flammable items or open flames.
NOTE: After periods of non-use, operate the unit at the
lowest torque setting to lubricate internal parts.
MAINTENANCE
1. Clean the wrench after each use. Use a dry, clean cloth
to clear any dirt, dust or debris.
NOTE: DO NOT submerge in any liquid or cleaning
solution as this will damage the torque wrench.
2. This unit has no serviceable parts. If the unit does not
appear to provide the correct torque reading (within
the accuracy standards provided), contact customer
service. The unit will need to be recalibrated.
