GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Please study these instructions carefully before attempting to operate this wrench.
2. Never apply more torque than the maximum scale reading.
3. This torque wrench is designed for manual tightening of thread fasteners only.
DO NOT USE IT AS A NUT-BREAKER OR FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE.
4. Over torqued or defective fasteners and sockets may suddenly break. TO PREVENT INJURY,
KEEP PROPER FOOTING AND BALANCE AT ALL TIMES. DO NOT USE THE WRENCH IN PLACES
FROM WHICH YOU MAY FALL OR SLIP, OR AROUND ROTATING MACHINERY.
5. This torque wrench will not prevent you from applying more torque than set - this is not a torque
limiting tool. Learn how different amounts of torque ‘feel’ so you will reduce the possibility of
damage and/or injury due to accidental overtorquing.
6. APPLY FORCE TO THE GRIP ONLY. DO NOT USE AS ‘CHEATER BARS’.
(A piece of pipe placed over the hand grip/ball).
7. Spare Trip Kits are available and should be fitted by a qualified Service Agent and should be
calibrated immediently to ensure accuracy.
8. All torque wrenches should be calibrated at least once a year or every 1,000 cycles, whichever
comes first.
9. This torque wrench operates in a clockwise direction only, do not use to unfasten.
10. Lifetime Warranty does not cover calibration.
ASSEMBLY OF YOUR TORQUE WRENCH
1. Your Torque Wrench is already supplied with a Removeable Square Drive (7).
2. Install the Square Drive (7), by inserting the drive into the Drive Reciever on the end of the
Torque Wrench.
3. The Square Drive (7) should “click” in position once inserted in the correct way. NOTE: Some
Square Drives may already be fitted into the Torque Wrench
HOW TO USE YOUR TORQUE WRENCH
WARNING!
1. DO NOT pull after the trip has clicked and the Indicator Pin (5) has been released.
Use special care at low torque settings.
2. If using the torque wrench frequently, ensure the Indicator Pin (5) is pressed in after
each use.
3. Your Torque Wrench is a precision instrument and should be treated as such.
4. Always store your Torque Wrench in the protective blow mould case.
1. Loosen the Thumb Screw (1) on the side of the Torque Wrench by rotating anti-clockwise.
2. Slide the Torque Indicator Wedge (2) to the desired torque setting, Torque Indicator Wedge (2)
must be positioned onto the centre line of the desired torque number.
3. Tighten the Thumb Screw (1) by rotating clockwise.
4. Gently push in the Indicator Pin (5) back into the Deflection Beam (6) to reset the Torque Wrench.
When the Torque Wrench is not in use, ensure the Indicator Pin (5) is pushed back into the
Deflector Beam (6) to keep the pin from coming into contact with any obstructions, as this could
cause damage to the Torque Wrench or effect the Wrench’s calibration.
5. Install the appropriate socket to the torque wrench, then attach to the fastener to be torqued.
Place your middle finger on the finger groove (4C) in the handle and grasp the handle. Slowly
and evenly pull the handle until you hear the click or see the Indicator Pin (5) release. The set
torque has been achieved.

6. For the K8032 Torque Wrench, place your thumb on the Thumb Grip (4A) located on the
outside edge of the Torque Scale (3) and gently grasp the handle ball (4B). Slowly and evenly pull
the handle until you hear the click or see the Indicator Pin (5) release. The set torque has been
achieved.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
It is normal for torque wrenches to go out of calibration with time and regular use. Whatever type of torque
wrench you are using, regular calibration will ensure that your tools remain as accurate and effective as
possible.
Putting in place a regular schedule for verifying and calibrating your torque wrench will mean less room
for error. Kincrome Tools and Equipment recommend you have your torque wrench calibrated by a NATA™
approved calibration facility, every 12 months or 1,000 cycles. If your Kincrome Torque Wrench is dropped,
knocked, even in the protective blow mould case, or any part replaced, the wrench must be immediately
re-calibrated prior to next use. Your new Kincrome Torque Wrench is calibrated at the factory in Taiwan,
prior to shipping and a certificate of that calibration is supplied for your individually serialised torque
wrench. It is the sole responsibility of the owner/user of this tool to ensure the calibration is correct as the
Torque Wrench may have gone out of calibration during transit to retailers. For peace of mind, you should
get your torque wrench checked prior to first use. Please note, the Kincrome Limited lifetime warranty does
not cover the cost of calibration, or the removable square drive of the wrench.
