1.0 BASIC DESCRIPTION

These Electronic Torque Tools are "State of the Art" devices, With Intelligent
Technology, Organic LED display (OLED). They are Menu Driven with Total
Tracability. Demonstrated to have better than 1% Accuracy. They are Simple to Set
and Calibrate and come complete with ISO 6789-2003 Certification.

These Torque Tools are, Hand-held Torque Measuring Instruments which provide
Precision Accuracy, They have High Repeatability. Presets can be set to provide the
user with Visual & Audio Signal's during Torque measurements. Supplied with visual
Low Battery Indicator. Use the wrench's for Preset Value Approach, Fastener
Overload, Range Overload, Maximum Mechanical Overload.

1.1 Recommended Use

The Electronic Torque Tools are specifically designed for use in all Industrial
Sectors and Applications where High Accuracy and Repeatability combined with a
Complete Torque Data Management & Control System are Standard Requirements.

1.2 Basic Characteristics

- Accuracy:Right hand side torque = 1%, Left hand side = 1% of Actual Reading

- Resolution: 0.05 to 50Nm & 0.1 to 1000Nm

- Alarms:Preset Value Approach, Fastener Overload, Range Overload,
Mechanical Overload, Low Battery, Memory Full.

- Memory Capacity: 2094 Values

- Battery Life:Sleep Mode 5,000 Hrs, Operational Mode 160 Hrs.

5.5 Bottom Section of PCFE

The lower section of the PCFE allows the user to view stored results from the
wrench. These results can then be saved as an Excel file for further analysis and to
offer the user complete traceability of their torque measurements.

Each row will display the following; Time and date of Torque operation, Torque
value and units, If it's a Preset result then the Minimum and Maximum tolerances
are displayed along with the nominal setting.

The "Type" Column will display the function that was been used for the Torque
operation, In the Example below you can see Peak and Preset.

Continuous Upload: When the wrench is connected to the PCFE and this is

selected then the user can take reading's and by pressing
confirm on the wrench the result will be automatically up
dated to the PCFE

Upload All: Once the wrench is connected to the PCFE, selecting this

option will upload all the wrench stored measurements to the
PCFE

Clear Wrench Data: Selecting this option will clear the stored results from the

wrench memory

Clear Results: Selecting this button on the PCFE will clear the displayed

PCFE results

Unit Conversion: Selecting this button allows the user to convert the displayed

PCFE readings between Nm, cNm, lbft, lbins, mkg and cmkg

Wrench Span and units - Change these and tool must be re-calibrated

5.4 Set a Preset using the PCFE

1. Ensure the wrench is
connected to the PCFE
software

2. Select the preset number or
location from 1 to 99 you wish
to set

3. When the pop up window
appears, fill in required fields
and press OK

4. Select Store to wrench and the
data is written to the wrench

5. Select Preset option on the
wrench and select the preset
required

1.3 Care Guidelines

These Instruments should be handled with care. Do not subject to Torque Loads in
excess of the Model Range. Do not use Tool to loosen fasteners tightened beyond
Max Tool Capacity - Never apply extensions to Tool without contacting your
supplier.

Do not Drop or Subject to Impact Blows - Provide adequate storage to Protect from
Damage - Adhere to Safety Instructions

Changing the Battery on Wrenches - Note: Battery life should last 160hrs+

1. Unscrew the metal End Cap on the handle of the wrench.

2. Remove the four AAA cell batteries and replace with new.

3. Screw back the metal End cap.

4. Check to ensure the date and time are correct

Ratchet head guidelines

1. Store in a dry location

2. Oil Frequently to prevent Ratchet head seizing

3. Do not exceed specified torques

4. Do not use external forces on Ratchet ( i.e. Hammer)
Max Torque for 1/4" Ratchet = 30 Nm

Max Torque for 3/8" Ratchet = 135 Nm
Max Torque for 1/2" Ratchet = 340 Nm
