1.0 Safety precautions
The torque meter can be damaged if it is overloaded. Mind the maximum measuring range and do
not apply side or radial forces. Do not use any tools to screw the test item onto the measurement

Do not use the meter to measure items or products that contain liquids. Though the meter is
moisture proof, spilling liquids could irreparably damage the instrument or adulterate measurement
results.
