12. Adjusting Preset Torque
CAUTION
- Increasing the preset torque will cause the torque limiter to function at a torque value that exceeds the initial setpoint.
Damage to the machine may occur.
12-1 Adjusting Preset Torque for the Spring-Loaded Limit Switch Model
Prestet torque is possible to be adjusted in the range of ±25% value which is after factory shipment.

- The preset torque is shown at the center of the adjusting scale plate [1] in the figure below.
Torque values indicated by T1 and T2 are positioned at ± 150° from the center. Use T1 and T2 as points of reference when changing
the preset torque.
- When it is necessary to increase or decrease the original preset torque, use the adjustment bolt [2].
Adjust torque within a range of ± 25% of the preset torque.
Overscaling T1 and T2 is permitted within ± 25%. However, do not make adjustment in excess of the maximum preset torque. (See the
selection table in the catalog.)
- An index [4] is stamped in the cut on the side of the threaded section of the adjustment bolt [2]. The index [4] is aligned with the end
face of the case cover [3] when the mark [5] on the adjusting bolt [2] is located at the position of the preset torque on the adjusting
scale plate [1]. Make fine adjustments using this alignment as a base. If the adjustment bolt is too tight or too loose, first reset the
adjustment bolt to align the index [4] with the end face of the case cover [3]. Then make adjustments.

Note : 1. For the reversible rotation specification, an adjustment bolt and adjustment scale plate will be located on both sides.
2. In the case of the B-type torque indicator (indicating a load factor of 0 – 100%), it is not possible to adjust the preset torque.
