Setting the Torque Value

The wrench has a torque range of 30-140 in. lbs. and adjusts in 1 in. lb. increments.

  1. Unlock the Adjustment Ring: Locate the locking mechanism, typically a knurled ring or collar near the handle. Rotate it to unlock the torque setting.
  2. Adjust the Torque: Rotate the handle or adjustment ring to set the desired torque value. Align the desired inch-pound value on the main scale with the zero mark on the micrometer scale. Then, rotate the micrometer scale until the desired increment aligns with the main scale line.
  3. Lock the Adjustment Ring: Once the desired torque is set, rotate the locking mechanism back to secure the setting. This prevents accidental changes during use.

  1. Позиционирайте гаечния ключ: Place the bit or adapter onto the fastener, ensuring a firm and straight engagement.
  2. Прилагайте постоянно налягане: Apply slow, steady pressure to the handle in the desired direction (clockwise for tightening, counter-clockwise for loosening if measuring break-away torque). Do not use sudden jerking motions.
  3. Listen for the Click: Continue applying pressure until you hear and feel a distinct "click." This indicates that the preset torque value has been reached.
  4. Stop Immediately: Once the click is felt/heard, stop applying pressure immediately. Further tightening will result in over-torquing the fastener.

The wrench is designed to be light and durable, weighing approximately 0.45 lbs, making it comfortable for extended use and precise applications.
