BE CAREFUL : if a torque is applied to the wrench during power-on period, an initial torque offset will be
recorded in the memory. Displayed value won't be the actual applied torque.
Setup
1. Unit selection : press U/S. Unit selection is in cyclic : N.m, in.lb, ft.lb, kg.cm
2. Set target torque : press up or down buttons to increase or decrease torque value.
Peak / Track mode selection
1. Long press on U/S. Torque wrench displays "modE".
2. Press up or down buttons to select P (Peak) or T (Track).
3. To confirm your choice, press 2 times U/S.
Track mode operation
1. Start (press C) and set target torque.
2. Apply torque. In Track mode, torque wrench displays current applied torque.
3. When you reach 90% of target torque :
- Buzzer : bip, bip, bip...
Green LED : "●"
-
4. When you reach 99.5% of target torque :
- Buzzer : biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip
Red LED : "●"
-
Peak mode operation
1. Start (press C) and set target torque.
2. Apply torque. In Peak mode, torque wrench displays always the maximum applied torque.
3. When you reach 90% of target torque :
- Buzzer : bip, bip, bip...
Green LED : "●"
-
4. When you reach 99.5% of target torque :
- Buzzer : biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip
Red LED : "●"
-
5. The maximum value you have reached is flashing on display.
6. Press C to clear display and tighten another component.
Over-torque (110% of max. torque range) may cause breakage or accuracy lose. If wrench displays "ErO",
this wrench has ever been applied more than 110% of max. torque. Damages are not covered by warranty.
Maintenance and storage :
- Do not shake violently or drop wrench. Do not use as a hammer.
- Do not leave in any place exposed to excessive heat, humidity, or direct sunlight. Do not use in water (not
waterproof). If wrench gets wet, wipe it immediately.
- Do not use organic solvents when cleaning this wrench.
- Keep away from magnets.
- Do not expose to dust, sand, or salt.
- Do not apply excessive force on LCD display.
- Apply torque slowly and grasp the center of the handle. Do not apply load at the end of handle.
- If the torque wrench does not function normally, loosen the battery cap then tighten it to re-start.
- One-year periodic recalibration is recommended. Please contact your local specialist. VAR does not
recalibrate torque wrenches.
- DV-12100 only : when checking accuracy or during calibration, please use the bit head packed inside the
blow mold case.
