WARNING: Risk of flying particles.
Over torquing can cause breakage. An out of calibration
torque wrench can cause part or tool breakage. Broken
hand tools, sockets or accessories can cause injury. Excess
force can cause crowfoot or flare nut wrench slippage.
Read this manual completely before using
the wrench.
For personal safety and to avoid wrench damage,
follow good professional tool practices.
Periodic recalibration is necessary to maintain
accuracy.
Wear safety goggles, user and bystanders.
Be sure all components, including all adaptors,
extensions, drivers and sockets are rated to match
or exceed the torque being applied.
Observe all equipment, system and manufacturer's
warnings, cautions and procedures when using
this wrench.
Use the correct size socket for the fastener.
Do not use sockets showing wear or cracks.
Replace fasteners with rounded corners.
To avoid damaging the wrench:
Never use this wrench to break fasteners loose.
Do not use extensions, such as a pipe, on the handle
of the wrench.
Check that the wrench capacity matches or exceeds
each application before proceeding.
Make sure the ratchet direction lever is fully engaged
in the correct position.
Verify the calibration of the wrench if you know
or suspect its capacity has been exceeded.
Do not force the head of flex head drives against
stops.
Always pull – do not push – on the wrench handle
