Digital torque wrenches have been designed to complletely take the guesswork out of setting the correct torque. This is great for the beginner and also a bonus for experienced workers who would rather be spending time on the actual job at hand. For those who have never used a Torque Wrench Digital.

First Step

The first thing you will want to do is set the torque on the wrench. The majority of models have a button that you push, making it very simple. There will also be up and down buttons to increase or decrease the level of torque provided by the wrench.

Second Step

From there, you will need to program the parameters for tolerance. This setting will affect the “go or no go” signals. The setting will also affect the quality control and safety of the Torque Wrench Digital.

Third Step

Once the proper settings are in place, it is time to use the wrench. There will be a light that alerts you as to when to use torque and when to stop using it.

Fourth Step

When you achieve the correct torque, a green light will let you know the job is done. If the pre-programmed parameters have not been reached, a red light will appear.

Using a Digitl Torque Wrench really is as simple as that. If you have any questions on if you are using it properly, refer to the owner’s manual that came with the wrench.
