• If the torque wrench is not used regularly, operate it several times at a low torque
setting to redistribute lubricant to the internal moving parts.
• The components in the handle are lubricated for life and should not be oiled. The
ratchet head may be lubricated for smooth use as needed.
• Clean the wrench by wiping it with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not immerse the
wrench in any type of liquid or cleaner to avoid damaging the internal components.
• The torque wrench should only be serviced or recalibrated by an accredited
measurement laboratory.
The ratchet head can be disassembled, if needed, for lubrication or service. Don’t
disassemble other parts of the wrench.

TORQUE WRENCH CARE
This tool is a precision measuring instrument that should be operated, stored, and
maintained with care.
STORAGE
MAINTENANCE
• Store the torque wrench in the storage case in a dry location.
• The torque wrench can be stored at any torque setting because of its internal design.
By comparison, other torque wrenches, like click-style models, often have to be
stored at the lowest torque setting.
