Crafted to exacting standards using superior materials and workmanship, this torque wrench ensures high productivity and consistent performance. Its intuitive design incorporates features that enhance both accuracy and user comfort, making it an indispensable tool for automotive, industrial, and heavy equipment maintenance.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Accurate Torque Application: Provides precise torque output from 100-600 ft/lbs, with a clear audible click and perceptible jolt signaling that the desired torque setting has been achieved, preventing over or under-tightening.
• Enhanced Control & Safety: A locking collar allows for easy and secure setting of the desired pre-torque, preventing any accidental changes in value while the tool is in use, ensuring consistent and safe operations.
• User Comfort for Extended Use: Features a comfortable, non-slip ergonomic grip handle that is ideal for prolonged and repeated use, reducing user fatigue and improving overall efficiency.
• Maintained Accuracy & Durability: A robust rubber seal positioned between the ratchet head and the tube effectively keeps internal lubrication in and harmful contaminants out, ensuring long-term accuracy and repeatability of the tool.
• Versatile Measurement: Equipped with easy-to-read dual scales for both imperial (ft/lbs) and metric (Nm) measurements, allowing for a wide range of torque applications across different specifications.
• Meets Industry Standards: Conforms to rigorous accuracy requirements set by ANSI, ISO, BSEN 26789-1994, and U.S. Government Federal Specification GGG-W-00686C, guaranteeing reliability and performance.

HOW TO USE:

• Select the Right Socket: Choose the correct 3/4" drive socket that matches the fastener you intend to tighten.
• Attach the Socket: Firmly attach the selected socket to the 3/4" square drive on the torque wrench head.
• Unlock the Adjustment: Locate the locking collar on the wrench handle and rotate it to unlock the torque adjustment mechanism.
• Set Desired Torque: Rotate the handle to align the desired torque value (either in ft/lbs or Nm) with the indicator line on the wrench body.
• Lock the Setting: Once the desired torque is set, rotate the locking collar back to its locked position to prevent accidental changes.
• Position the Wrench: Place the socket onto the fastener, ensuring it is fully engaged.
• Apply Force: Apply steady and increasing force to the wrench handle in the clockwise direction. You will feel a perceptible jolt and hear an audible click when the preset torque value has been reached.
• Release and Remove: Once the click is heard/jolt is felt, stop applying force and remove the wrench from the fastener.
• Store Properly: After use, clean the wrench and return it to its protective blow mold case for safe storage.
