TOHNICHI FTD16N2-S (01) PDF DOCUMENT

The main components of the TOHNICHI FTD16N2-S torque driver are:

• Handle

• Scale Plate (目盛)

• Main Pointer (指針)

• Memory Pointer (置き針)

• Bit (ビット) (Optional)

To use this product correctly and safely, please be sure to read the instruction manual thoroughly before use.

• Make sure there is no oil or grease on the grip. A slip of the hand while tightening may cause an accident or injury.

• Check for cracks, scratches, and rust. These can cause damage to the driver and may result in an injury. If such conditions exist, have a functional test performed and repair if necessary.

• Do not use the torque driver beyond the maximum torque setting. This will cause damage or injury.

• Do not use the torque driver if it is missing a pin or scale plate, etc. Ask a repair shop to inspect the torque wrench and repair it before using.

• Do not modify the torque driver. Modifications will weaken the torque driver and may cause errors in accuracy, as well as cause an accident or injury.

• Do not drop the torque driver or apply a strong shock or jolt. This will cause damage or deformation as well as decrease the accuracy and durability, which may cause an accident or injury.

• Use only parts designated by Tohnichi for repair of the torque driver. Use only Tohnichi parts.

• Confirm that the driver is set according to the correct unit of measure before using (e.g., kgf·cm, N·m, etc.).

• Do not use the torque driver in fresh water or sea water. The inside mechanism will go bad and cause an accident or injury. If you drop it in water or sea water, get it checked out or repaired.

• Use the correct bit that fits the screw you are using.

• Perform regular inspections for function and accuracy. Periodical inspections are essential to ensure the torque wrench is in optimal condition, thus preventing injury.

• Remove any dirt such as dust, mud, oil, and water, etc. after each use and before storing the torque driver.

• When storing the torque driver for a long time, set it at the minimum torque and keep it in a dry place. If improperly stored, the accuracy and durability will decrease rapidly.

Hold the shaft when you attach or detach a bit or a socket. If you hold the grip when you attach or detach a bit or a socket, the torque driver might be broken.

1. Insert the bit into the bit holder.

2. Set the main pointer to the “0” position on the scale plate. The pointer should be at the “0” position.

3. Move the memory pointer to the “0” position opposite of the measuring direction.

4. Start the measuring or tightening operation.

The specifications for the FTD-S series models are as follows. All models have an accuracy of ±3%.

A Torque Driver Tester is used for torque driver calibration. The available models are listed below.
