DIGITAL GAUGE SAFETY
• Before use, check that the digital gauge has not been damaged, and that no parts are worn.
• Do not force the electronic circuit of the digital gauge.
PERSONNEL SAFETY
Stay alert; watch what you are doing. Do not use the digital gauge while tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication.
BATTERY INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT
Install or replace the batteries as follows.
• Loosen the four screws of the battery compartment on the back.
IMPORTANT! READ THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING THE
DIGITAL GAUGE. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE SAFETY STANDARDS
AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.
CAUTION

ISTRUZIONI PER L’USO I INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE EN
• Remove the at batteries, and install the new batteries, paying attention to the polarity (2 AAA batteries).
• Close the battery compartment, and tighten the four screws.
• Remove the batteries, if the digital gauge is not used for an extended period.
• If the battery is at, the battery symbol will be shown on the display.
DIGITAL GAUGE SAFETY
• Do not drop or hit the digital gauge.
• Do not use the digital gauge in humid or wet environments.
• To clean the digital gauge, use a dry cloth. Do not use alcohol or diluents.
• Do not place the digital gauge near magnetic elds.
• Do not modify the digital gauge. Changes may affect operation.

DIGITAL GAUGE OPERATION
This device has been designed to measure right-hand/left-hand torque or angle values on screws and
nuts in combination with ratchets or levers.
Two driving torque measurement modes are available:
PEAK HOLD: the display shows the instant driving torque, the maximum achieved value being shown
at the end.
TRACK: the display only shows the instant driving torque; after the measurement has been completed,
the gauge is ready for a new measurement. When the set value is reached, the LED indicator will turn
on and the buzzer will sound.
• Lay the gauge on a at surface and press the ON button (C). When the symbol 0000 is shown on the
display, wait a few seconds.
NB: Do not move the gauge while setting the required value.
• After the required value has been set, the display will show the previously set torque or angle.
• Press button U/S to change the unit of measurement of the torque or select the value in degrees.
Set the new torque or angle value by pressing buttons and . The new selected value will
automatically be saved. Then press button (M).
• Place the socket with the ratchet on the gauge. Tightening can then be started.
• When 80% of the selected value is reached, the rst green LED will turn on and the buzzer will sound.
• When the maximum set value is reached, the red LED will turn on.
• In the PEAK HOLD mode, press button (M) to store the value of the driving torque or angle
(max. stored values: 50). The number where the value has been stored will blink on the display.
CAUTION: In the PEAK HOLD mode, if the tightening process is interrupted for a few seconds, the
display will blink, showing the value reached upon interruption. When the tightening process is
resumed, the value will be calculated from the value reached before.
• To reset the device and start a new measurement, press button (C).
If the device is not used for approximately 2 minutes, the device will automatically turn off.
SETTING UP MENU
Press button (C) to turn the gauge on.
Keep button (U/S) pressed to enter the conguration menu. Press button (U/S) several times to enter
the menus: PEAK HOLD/TRACK, UNITS OF MEASUREMENT OF DRIVING TORQUE AND ANGLES,
TORQUE MEMORIES, RESETTING TORQUE MEMORIES and TIGHTENING COUNT.
To quit the conguration menu and go back to the preset memories, press button (U/S) again.
PEAK HOLD/TRACK MENU
• During the tightening process, the instant driving torque will be displayed.
• In the PEAK HOLD mode, upon release, the maximum reached value will be displayed.
• In the TRACK mode, upon release, the maximum preset value will be displayed.
The gauge is ready for a new tightening process.
• The TRACK mode does not allow the reached values to be stored.
• In the PEAK mode, the display will show ModE and, in the right bottom corner, a P.
If the display is in the TRACK mode, it will show a T.
• Press buttons and to change the mode.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.
TORQUE UNIT OF MEASUREMENT MENU FOR MEASURING ANGLES
• When angles are measured, the device will also measure the simultaneously applied driving torque.
• When the tightening process has been completed, if the device is in the PEAK HOLD mode, the torque
and angle values will be displayed alternatively.
• This menu allows the unit of measurement of the torque to be selected.
CAUTION: When the value of the device is saved, only the angle will be recorded, whereas the torque
will not.
• The display will show A-UI and, on the right, the currently selected unit of measurement.
• Press buttons and to change the unit of measurement.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.

TORQUE MEMORIES MENU
• This menu provides the values of the measured and stored torque or angle (up to 50 values stored).
• If no values have been stored in the menu, the display will show nonE.
• The display will show the stored torque value for each memory area (n005<--> 20.3°).
• Press buttons and to select the stored values.
• To delete one of the stored values, press button (C) twice in the memory area.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.
RESETTING TORQUE MEMORIES MENU
• This function allows all the values stored in the TORQUE MEMORIES menu to be deleted.
• The display will show ClrA
• To delete all the stored values, press button (C): the display will show no?
• To delete all the stored values, press button (C) again. To cancel the operation, press button (U/S).
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) several times.
TIGHTENING COUNT MENU
• The device will store the torque at a torque value equal to, or higher than, 60% of its maximum capacity.
• The count cannot be reset until the next calibration.
• For example, if the display shows (n-0 <--> 0160) , it means that 160 torque values have been set.
If it shows (n-1 <--> 2500), it means that 12,500 torque values have been set.
• To quit the menu, press button (U/S) twice.
ERROR MESSAGES
• Er0 > indicates that the gauge has been subjected to a driving torque higher than 110% of the maximum
value.
• Er4 > indicates that the value has not been set correctly. Press button (C) to repeat the operation.
Do not move the gauge while setting it.
• Er5 > indicates that the gauge is not working correctly. Proceed with the RESET.
• Er---> indicates that the gauge was rotated too quickly during a measurement. Press button (C) to repeat
the operation.
• Full > indicates that no data can be stored in the memory because the memory is full. Delete some
of the 50 stored data.
RESET
• The gauge can be reset by removing the batteries.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance, repair and calibration jobs must be carried out by trained personnel only. For such jobs,
you can contact Beta Utensili S.P.A.’ s repair centre.
DISPOSAL
