Safety
Never exceed the maximum limit torque of 125 %
of the nominal value. Observe the specifications
on the type plate.
Avoiding damage to the torque wrench
Do not use the torque wrench as an impact tool.
Check the torque wrench and all accessories for
damage prior to use. Never use a damaged
torque wrench or damaged accessories.
Do not overload the torque wrench. Excessive or
permanent overloading may lead to damage to
the torque wrench.
Never expose the torque wrench to rain, moisture
or other fluids. Ingressing fluids can cause
incorrect measured values and therefore unsafe
threaded connections.
Do not use the torque wrench in aggressive
atmospheres. An ingressing aggressive
atmosphere can cause incorrect measured values
and therefore unsafe threaded connections.
Do not allow any foreign bodies to enter the
torque wrench housing. Always cover the PC
connection socket when not in use.
Do not use the torque wrench for the uncontrolled
release of threaded connections which are e.g.
rusted tight.
Never exceed the maximum limit torque of 125 %
of the nominal value.
Never open the torque wrench housing.
Make sure that all inserts and connectors which
are used are firmly connected and correctly
inserted.
Leaking batteries can cause damage to the torque
wrench. If the torque wrench is not used for a long
time, remove the battery.
Avoiding malfunctions
Check the device's accuracy at regular intervals,
see page 24.
Do not overload the torque wrench. Excessive or
permanent overloading may lead to torque
wrench measuring errors.
Never exceed the maximum limit torque of 125 %
of the nominal value.
Do not kink the cables and connectors, and never
expose these to excessive tensile forces or
temperatures.
Make sure that all inserts and connectors which
are used are firmly connected and correctly
inserted.
Environmental pollution due to incorrect disposal
Dispose of cleaning agents and lubricants
according to the regulations applicable at the
operating location.
