Preface
Thank you for the confidence you have shown in Sure Torque, as demonstrated by your purchase of our
equipment.
Although many machine concepts and subsystem operations may be common to several different Sure Torque
machine models, this Operation and Maintenance Manual (O&M) applies to your specific packaging system.
This manual is intended to provide a comprehensive description of your system’s machine concepts, safety
precautions, operation, basic maintenance, and adjustments necessary to assure optimum performance. A
troubleshooting and replaceable parts section is included (section 5) to aid in prolonging maximum machine
productivity and packaging line “up-time.” We at ST take great pride in you, our customer, and dedicate this manual to
support your goal of prolonged system productivity throughout the years.
ST machines normally require little special attention other than routine lubrication and cleaning. Routine
preventative maintenance procedures, however, should always be followed, especially those recommended in this
manual. In particular, component contact areas should be inspected regularly for proper alignments and for possible
wear or damage. The handy “Replaceable and Spare Parts List” (optional) will aid in rapid replacement of worn, or
damaged parts, and will help return your machine to on-line productivity in the shortest possible time.
It is also extremely important to observe good shop safety practices in all aspects of installation, lubrication,
operation, maintenance, and adjustments of all ST packaging equipment. Safety instructions given in this manual
should be followed strictly, without exception under all circumstances.
If this manual does not answer a particular question, or leaves doubts in the proper operation of your machine, do
not hesitate to contact our Customer Service department in Sarasota, Florida (941) 753-1095.
Your ST representative is eager to help you get the most production possible out of your torque tester. Our staff
can ensure that you receive any additional information you may need. We will work with you in solving interfacing or
mechanical problems, and will guide you in ordering the proper equipment, or replacement parts.
Again, thank you for becoming another loyal ST customer.
Sincerely,
Dan Delzer
