TORQUE WRENCH
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
At low torque settings, pull wrench slowly to observe click.
Please read and understand entire manual, including all safety information, before using torque
wrench. This tool is a precision measuring instrument. Handle with care and store properly. Do not
attempt to increase leverage of this wrench with any other device. Failure to follow all instructions
could result in damage to torque wrench, property damage, or injury.
• Wrench is shipped ready to use, calibrated and tested to an accuracy of +/- 4%. To maintain this
accuracy, it is important that wrench is stored at lowest torque setting, 50 .-lb (67.8 Nm).
This setting relieves extra tension on the internal spring, eliminating fatigue that can adversely
affect accuracy.

WRENCH OPERATION
Fig. D illustrates the basic operation of the torque wrench. For accurate operation, grasp the knurled handle only and apply
pulling force. When the desired torque setting is reached, the roller bearing and roller pin will roll over each other, causing a
click you can hear and feel. NOTE: At low torque settings, click can be subtle. Use wrench in a quiet environment.
1. Install proper socket/attachment to square drive. Place socket on nut/bolt to be tightened.
2. Operate torque wrench the same as a standard socket wrench to tighten nut/bolt. As nut/bolt becomes snug, slow
operation to a smooth, steady pull. Operating wrench too quickly or with too much force may cause you to miss the
exact torque setting. At the instant the wrench clicks, torque setting has been reached. Stop pulling wrench and
release pressure on handle. Do not continue to pull aer torque setting is reached. Doing so will overtighten the
nut/bolt and could damage wrench. Once pressure is released from the handle, wrench will automatically reset for
next operation. NOTE: At low torque settings, use extra care to release wrench at the proper point aer it clicks.
3. Wrench does not measure torque below 50 .-lb./67.8 Nm.
4. Do not use wrench to break free stuck fasteners.
SETTING TORQUE READING
This is a dual-range torque wrench marked with
foot pounds (.-lb.) and Newton meters (
Nm
)
on opposite sides of handle.
The torque scale is marked on the handle body
with more precise subdivisions on the knurled
handle (Fig. A). In these instructions the handle
body scale will be referred to as the “main
scale” and the knurled handle scale will be
referred to as the “micrometer scale”.
Tighten/adjust lock nut and knurled
handle by hand only.
Foot Pounds (Example reading: 120 .-lb.)
1. Locate lock nut on the end of handle.
Unlock knurled handle by turning lock
nut counterclockwise.
2. COARSE SCALE ADJUSTMENT (Fig. B):
Using .-lb. scale
, turn knurled handle until
its
top edge is even with the horizontal
100
” mark on main scale and the “0” mark
on micrometer scale is centered on vertical
line of main scale.
3. FINE SCALE ADJUSTMENT (Fig. C):
The micrometer scale divides the main scale markings into 25 divisions.
Every micrometer scale marking equals 1 .-lb., also known as the minimum increment. To increase torque from
100 to 120, turn micrometer handle clockwise until "20" mark is centered on vertical line of main scale.
100 .-lb. (main scale) + 20 .-lb. (micrometer scale) = 120 .-lb.
4
. Lock torque setting by turning lock nut clockwise until snug. Wrench is now set to measure
120
.-lb. of torque
and ready to use.
Newton Meters (Example reading: 145 Nm)
Setting desired torque on the Nm scale uses the same procedure described above for .-lb. scale. The micrometer scale
divides the main scale markings into 25 divisions. Every micrometer scale marking equals 1.35 Nm, also known as the
minimum increment.
To set a torque value of 145 Nm, turn knurled micrometer handle until top is aligned with “135.6” mark on main scale and
the “0” mark on micrometer scale is centered on vertical line of main scale. To increase torque from 135.6 to 145, turn
micrometer handle clockwise until the “7” mark is centered on vertical line of main scale. 145 Nm - 135.6 Nm = 9.4 Nm.
9.4 Nm / 1.35 Nm = 7 micrometer scale markings. Wrench is now set to measure 145 Nm of torque and ready to use.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. If wrench has not been used for a long period of time, operate it several times at
a low torque setting. This will allow internal lubricant to recoat moving parts.
2. When wrench is not in use, keep adjustment at lowest torque setting,
50 .-lb./ 67.8 Nm
(Fig. E).
Do not turn handle below lowest torque setting.
3. This wrench is a precision measuring instrument. Take care to operate wrench
correctly. Store in a clean, dry environment.
4. Clean wrench by wiping with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not immerse in any
type of liquid or cleaner. This may damage the internal components of the wrench.
