■ Attention
The product that you have purchased contains a
rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable. At
the end of it's useful life, under various state and
local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this bat-
tery into the municipal waste stream. Check with
your local solid waste officials for details in your
area for recycling options or proper disposal.
■ Inspections and calibration
HIOS torque meters employ a unique sensor mech-
anism that maintains accuracy for long periods. We
recommend that the torque meter be sent in to HIOS
Corporation for inspection at least once a year. (Note
that a fee is charged for this service.)
HIOS torque meters are shipped calibrated to meet
our accuracy standards. Depending on the condi-
tions under which the meter is used, accuracy may
be affected over the course of months or years.
Therefore, HIOS offers calibration and, when nec-
essary, overhaul services. We also recommend use
of the periodic calibration documentation included
with the torque meter. This documentation shows
the relation of the HIOS standards to Japan's stan-
dards.
■ Cautions to be observed when
sending the torque meter in for
calibration or repair
1. Pack the meter in the attache case in which it
was originally shipped to protect it from violent
impacts during shipping.
2. Do not put anything into the attache case other
than the items originally shipped inside. Never
include items such as homemade mounting
plates, tools or extra bits. HIOS cannot assume
responsibility for these.
3. Please explain the nature of the difficulty with
the instrument in sufficient detail.
