However high the quality of your screwdriver, you cannot make full use of its potential unless you know
the right amount of torque for each job and make sure that is the torque being delivered. With a HIOS digi­tal torque meter you can make torque settings on screwdrivers, check torque wrenches or make torque
measurements of various kinds of rotation tools. With an optional attachment, it is also possible to transfer
measurement data to a computer for use in integrated production management systems.

Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety precautions
to ensure safe and correct operation.

Before using

■

Before you begin using the instrument, read the



operating instructions and also the precautions
given on the seal affi xed to the instrument.

HIOS cannot assume responsibility for ac-



cidents or diffi culties when the instrument has
been remodeled or disassembled, or when it has
been used in a way other than that explained in
the operating instructions.

During operation

■

Keep the working area orderly to ensure that



extraneous objects do not become entangled
when the screwdriver or other instrument being
measured is operated.

Never point the driver bit in any direction other



than into the torque meter.

If the torque meter shows any functioning ab-



normality, cease operation immediately and
contact HIOS Corporation or your HIOS dealer.

Operators of power tools should always button



cuffs and shirt fronts and fasten zippers on ap­parel when conducting operations.

Operators of power tools should not wear gloves,



as this interferes dangerously with having a
proper grip on the tools.

Precautions in operating a digital

■

torque meter

Never exceed the maximum torque levels indi-



cated in the specifi cations on page 14. Exceed-
ing capacity load levels by 120% will result in
internal damage to the meter.

The battery charger is for NiMH batteries only. Nev-



er use any other kind of battery, even from HIOS.

Operating the Fidaptor



See pages 10 and 11 concerning operation of

the Fidaptor.

Do not use this instrument for measurement of



continuous impact tools like air drivers or im­pact wrenches.*

Do not disassemble the instrument or loosen the



screws on its body, as this could cause inaccu­racy in measurement.

Use of the battery charger



See page 12 for instructions on battery charging.

Use only the products specifi ed in these operat-



ing instructions for connection to the data out­put ports.

When disconnecting cables, grasp the cable plug



and take care not to damage connector pins.

Always turn the power switch off after complet-



ing measurement operations.

Do not strike the acrylic display panel or place



heavy objects on it.

Avoid excessive internal adjustments for cali-



brating or other purposes.

Handle the instrument with care and take care



not to drop it.

This instrument is sensitive to ambient condi-



tions. Avoid using it in the following kinds of
places:



Places where water, oil or other liquids could

fall onto or get inside the instrument.



Places subject to vibration, dust or hot air.



Outdoors, or places where electrical discharg-

es may occur.



Places of high temperature or humidity. (Operat-

ing humidity and temperature ranges for digital
torque meters are 25%−65% and 15



Any other place where there is a danger of the

−

35℃).

instrument being damaged or its functioning
impaired.

Please do not store the instrument in places of



high temperature or high humidity. This could
result in condensation forming inside, which
could endanger functioning.

* HIOS offers other instruments for measurement

of air drivers, impact wrenches, etc. Please con­tact HIOS Corporation or your HIOS dealer for
information.

How to Use The Fidaptor TFG series

Loosen the spring until the top of

the bearing housing reaches to the

desired area.

The desired area to
loosen the spring up to

at the point where the clutch disengages. Features
a safety cover and a mechanism that has almost
the same effect as that obtained in actual tapping

Parts name:
Bearing housing

Note (to keep accuracy of torque

●

measurement)

• Loosen the spring up to the desired area for
storing the Fidaptor properly.

• Scratch or wipe with chemicals such as benzin
or alcohol could cause the serigraphed “Limited
line” peel-off.

• We recommend to follow the guide written
in the “ maintenance and inspection of of the
Fidaptor “ in the operation manual and replace
the Fidaptor driver shaft with a new one after
2,500 strokes.

Threaded shaft

(comes with Model HP-100)

Use as adapter for bits that are not the 5 mm HIOS
standard diameter. (Refer to diagram on page 10

when changing shock absorber spring.)
