Figure 3
The V-RAD torque wrench comes fully calibrated with a quick reference torque chart label on the barrel of
the tool, see Figure 3. The torque chart displays alpha and numeric characters that are to be dialled in on
the torque wrench.
To select a desired torque, dial in your V-RAD by using the alpha and numeric selections on the top of the
V-RAD torque wrench, see Figure 4. Once this is done, select forward or reverse and you are ready to
work when you press the trigger. When the tool reaches the desired torque, the V-RAD will automatically
stop.

2. Can the handle be rotated for ease of installation.
3. Make sure that there is no movement between the tool and the reaction arm.

movements of reaction arm.
5. The trigger should be depressed until the torque wrench stops automatically.
