Your safety, and the safety of others,
may depend on your proper use of this tool. This manual provides information about the proper use of
this tool that is important for your protection and for the protection of your work. If you don't

do not use the tool
. Instead, seek assistance from your distributor
or from Torq-Comm customer support.
Torque can be critical! Incorrect torque can be dangerous!
Although Torq-Comm, Inc.'s tools
are designed to be safe when used properly, improper use of these tools may create unsafe conditions
resulting in catastrophic failures and other accidents, causing severe
injury
or
death
, significant property
damage, expensive shut down of industry equipment or infrastructure, and environmental damage.
Understand torqueing specifications, conditions, and variables.
The software embedded in
this Torq-Comm tool makes preliminary torque calculations required for different applications based
upon published specifications such as ASME PCC-1 2013, API flange specifications, ANSI material
specifications, and other specifications that are common in the industry. Nonetheless, there are a
number of variables that affect final torque calculations that must be properly accounted for when using
this tool. These variables include,
but are not limited to
:
•
design specifications for the work to which the tool is applied
•
other information input by the tool user
•
dirt or debris in a tapped hole
•
grease or oil on the threads
•
damaged threads
•
hole misalignment
Don't ignore calibration and warnings.
Your tool communicates with the digital pressure gauge
and other components using wireless communications technology that must be properly calibrated and
maintained. The digital pressure gauge is calibrated when it is shipped, but it is up to the user to re-
calibrate it as required by the appropriate internal calibration schedule. Also, do not ignore or
circumvent built-in safety features such as the requirement for supervisor approval of out-of-
specification readings.
