@sequoia464 posted:I have been looking at these for a while now, but I'm not understanding how you dial in the torque when tightening. Are these mostly used for breaking loose stubborn nuts and bolts but re assembling with a conventional torque wrench?
I have been cautioned throughout my life about over torquing nuts/bolts.
Mine has 4 settings to change the torque it will bring the nut to. I also use torque sticks to make sure I dont go over a specified torque setting. For example, if I want to have my lugs torqued to 100 ft lbs then I will use an 80 ft lb torque stick to get it close. Then I do the final torque with a torque wrench.
