1. Read this manual completely before using the VERSATORQ2®
system.
2. Always wear safety goggles when applying torque to fasteners.
3. To ensure personal safety and prevent equipment damage,
make sure that all components, including all sensors,
adaptors, extensions, drivers and sockets are rated to
match or exceed the torque being applied.
4. Observe all equipment, system and manufacturer’s warnings,
cautions and procedures when using this meter.
5. Do not use this meter with power off. Always turn on the meter
so the torque values are indicated on the display.
6. Use the pre-set alarm circuitry to protect fasteners and sensors
from an overload.
7. Do not press Zero-Tare while torque is applied.
8. To avoid damaging sensors:
• Do not use a torque sensor to break fasteners loose.
• Verify the calibration of any sensor whose capacity you
know or suspect has been exceeded. (Display shows
OVER when sensor capacity is exceeded.)
• Check that the sensor’s capacity matches or exceeds
each application before proceeding.
9. For personal safety and to avoid sensor damage, follow
good, professional tool practices when using drivers
with sensors:
• Use the correct size socket for the fastener.
• Do not use sockets showing wear or cracks.
• Replace fasteners with rounded corners.
• Always pull (don’t push) on a wrench handle, and adjust
your stance to prevent a possible fall should something
give. Do not use extensions, such as a pipe, on the
handle of a wrench.
• When using ratchets, make sure the direction lever is fully
engaged in the correct position.
10. Only use the MINI-USB port in areas known to be NON-EXPLOSIVE
11. Only use the HEADPHONE port in areas known to be NON-EXPLOSIVE
12. DO NOT replace batteries when an EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE IS PRESENT.
French: Nes pas remplacer la batterie quand une atmosphère explosive est prèsente
13. Only use specified AA batteries on pages 5 & 6 of this operation manual
French: Utilisez uniquement les piles AA indiquèes sur les pages 5 et 6 du maunual d’utilisation
14. This device is not designed to withstand dielectric high voltage test. The chassis will
not maintain 500V to ground of the wiring connections.
