Select the torque wrench drive that is in the mid-range of the desired torque. Do not use cheater bars or any other means of increasing leverage. Torque wrenches are to be used by hand.Take care to never overload a torque wrench past its maximum torque.Make sure the direction lever is fully engaged.The ratchet mechanism may slip or break if dirty, mismatched or worn parts are used. Do not use torque wrenches with sockets or fasteners showing wear.Always pull, do not push to apply torque.Users shall apply a controlled force with a stance adjusted and braced to prevent rapid bodily movement or a fall if a sudden release occurs.Do not use torque wrenches to loosen or remove fasteners. Torque wrenches are to be used to tighten fasteners.All wrenches include a “Certificate of Calibration.All wrenches shipped in plastic storage box or metal case (except 2,000 lbs.), which will be shipped in a cardboard carton.Calibration traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).Meets and/or exceeds requirements of GGG-W-686 and/or ANSI 14M.Accurate, ± 3% both ways at 20-100% of full.Equally accurate in both left and right hand.Exclusive bipolar dual scales, English and Metric, permits accurate reading of both scales, with follower.Exclusive torsion beam design provides long life and accuracy. All dial torque wrenches are “State-of-the-Art” torque.Users must wear hard hats, gloves, and steel-toed boots.Do not use a torque multiplier without reading and learning the safety and operating instructions that are provided with each torque multiplier.A torque multiplier generates an output torque much greater than the input.Read the instruction manual completely before using any torque wrench and learn the proper method to operate, maintain and store torque wrenches. Torque wrenches are a precision instrument.Comfort or plastic grips on handles are not intended to give any degree of protection against electric shock and shall not be used on or near live electric.To avoid possible eye injury from flying objects, safety goggles or equivalent protection conforming to ANSI 1 shall be worn and kept clean by the user and all persons in the immediate area where any tool is being used.Users and bystanders must wear proper safety equipment.
