Setup
a) Inserting/changing the batteries
• Remove the screws from the rear of the housing using the hex key provided and remove the battery
compartment cover.
• Insert 2x AAA batteries. Pay attention to the polarity markings on the inside of the battery compartment.
• Close the battery compartment and screw the cover down again rmly and securely with the screws.
• Replace the batteries as soon as the battery status display indicates a low battery level (<2.4 V). After
reaching this threshold, the battery status display ashes for 5 seconds. If the batteries are not replaced
within this time period, the product switches off automatically.
b) Assembly of the components
90 °
X
Use only suitable extensions,
squares and ratchets. Connect
all individual components
centred, straight and precisely
ush, otherwise there is a risk of
damage.
c) Switching on/off
• Press the C button to switch the device on. A beep sounds. ‘0000’ ashes.
• Place the product on a horizontal surface with the buttons pointing to the side. Wait until the automatic
reset process is complete after switching on. The product is ready for operation.
• Press and hold the C button for approx. 3 seconds to switch the device off.
• The devices switches off automatically if no button is pressed for 2 minutes.
• Press the C button before each use to carry out a reset.
Do not press the C button while tightening with a key or other force application. Reset with the
C button is blocked in this case.
This is to avoid incorrect readings.
d) Display inversion
• Press the button to rotate the display 180°. This may or may not be necessary, depending on the
working position.
Please note that inverting the LC display reverses the position description of the indicators:
‘Right’ becomes ‘left’ and vice versa. The descriptions in these operating instructions are based
on the default position.
e) Memory functions
The torque adapter has 30 pre-sets for pre-setting different congurations of torque and operating mode. You
can quickly use an exact set value in an operating mode by simply selecting a memory location.
• Press the M button to activate memory location selection. ‘M-##’ ashes on the LC display. Select a
memory location number with the ▲ or ▼ button while the memory location number ‘M-##’ is ashing
on the LC display.
• End activation of memory location selection by pressing M again, or wait for approx. 6 seconds. As soon as
the ashing stops, you can use the torque adapter with the set torque of the the current memory location
or set the new value.
The data in the memory are pre-set to maximum.
• If the memory location number ‘M-##’ is no longer ashing, press the ▲ or ▼ button to modify a set
memory value.
• Press and hold one of the two buttons to run through a set value quickly.
• Press the TPA button to set an operating mode for a memory location. The ‘T’, ‘P’ or ‘A’ indicators indicate
the set operating mode. For details of the operating modes, see ‘h) Operating modes’.
Do not set the torque to less than 20 % of the setting range. Angle degree settings must begin
at 1°.
f) Switching units
• Press the U/S button to switch between the units. The set unit appears on the LC display in a display loop
of Nm > kgf.cm > lbf.in > lbf.ft.
g) Resetting
• Press and hold the C and ▼ buttons simultaneously for approx. 5 seconds to reset all memory values to
the factory settings.
h) Operating modes
You can adjust operating modes when setting memory locations or during operation.
• Press the TPA button to switch the current operating mode of the device. ‘T’, ‘P’ or ‘A’ are displayed on the
LC display in this sequence as the ID of the set operating mode.
Set each of the possible torque values for the torque adapter if you have not yet implemented
any settings or retrieved a memory value.
