Persediaan dan Operasi

1. Attaching and Removing Sockets

Each torque wrench features a quick-release button for easy attachment and removal of sockets and accessories.

  1. Press the quick-release button located on the ratchet head.
  2. Insert the desired socket or accessory onto the square drive.
  3. Release the button to securely lock the socket in place.
  4. To remove, press the button and pull the socket off.

2. Setting the Torque Value

To ensure accurate tightening, follow these steps to set the desired torque:

  1. Locate the locking knob at the base of the handle.
  2. Pull down the locking knob and hold it in the unlocked position.
  3. Rotate the handle to align the desired torque value on the scale. The main scale indicates major increments, and the micro-scale on the handle provides finer adjustments.
  4. Once the desired torque is set, release the locking knob. It will automatically spring back into place, locking the setting.

3. Memohon Tork

The torque wrenches feature a 72-tooth reversible ratchet head, allowing for both clockwise and counter-clockwise operation. However, for torque application, it is generally recommended to use the wrench in the tightening (clockwise) direction unless specified otherwise.

  1. Attach the appropriate socket to the wrench and place it on the fastener.
  2. Apply smooth, steady pressure to the handle.
  3. Continue applying pressure until you hear a distinct "click" sound and feel a slight vibration in the handle. This indicates that the preset torque value has been reached.
  4. Immediately stop applying force once the click is heard to prevent over-tightening.

Penyelenggaraan dan Penyimpanan

  • Pembersihan: Wipe the torque wrench with a clean, dry cloth after each use. Do not use solvents or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or internal components.
  • Storan: Always return the torque wrench to its lowest torque setting (but not below the minimum specified value) before storing it in its protective case. This relieves tension on the internal spring, preserving its accuracy over time.
  • Penentukuran: Each VANPO torque wrench is calibrated to an accuracy of approximately ±3% and comes with a calibration certificate. Regular professional recalibration is recommended, especially after heavy use or if the wrench has been dropped.
  • Elakkan Beban berlebihan: Never exceed the maximum torque capacity of the wrench.

Menyelesaikan masalah

If you encounter issues with your torque wrench, consider the following:

  • No "Click" Sound: Ensure the torque setting is not below the minimum range. Apply smooth, steady pressure; a quick jerk might prevent the click mechanism from engaging properly. If the issue persists, the wrench may require recalibration or service.
  • Bacaan Tidak Tepat: Verify that the torque setting was correctly locked before use. Ensure the wrench is clean and free from debris. If accuracy is still questionable, professional recalibration is necessary.
  • Stuck Adjustment: If the locking knob or adjustment mechanism is stiff, ensure it is clean. Do not force the mechanism; contact customer support if it remains stuck.
