However high the quality of your screwdriver, you cannot make full use of its potential unless you know
the right amount of torque for each job and make sure that is the torque being delivered. With a HIOS digital torque meter you can make torque settings on screwdrivers, check torque wrenches or make torquemeasurements of various kinds of rotation tools. With an optional attachment, it is also possible to transfer
measurement data to a computer for use in integrated production management systems.
Easy to use, accurate and low in cost, HIOS digital torque meters are used by manufacturers of electronic
goods, cameras, watches and other kinds of precision instruments, as well as by makers of automobiles
and aircraft.

First check the state of the battery charge. Whenthe power is on and the battery has an insufficientcharge, the display reads "LOBAT." When thishappens, use the battery charger to recharge thebattery for at least 3 hours and no more than 6hours.

10.Be sure to turn off the power and remove thetool from the socket when you are finished measuring.

■ How to measure screwdrivertorque using the Fidaptor

1. Make sure the digital torque meter is stable.

1. Insert the Fidaptor into the digital torque meter's socket, then fit the bit of the screwdriver tobe measured into the head of the Fidaptor. The
Fidaptor is for bits of 5 mm. Model HP-100
comes with two threaded shafts in addition to
the Fidaptor that can be used for three different bit diameters. (Refer to diagram on page 10
when changing shock absorber spring.)

3. Conduct zero adjustment. Set【MODE】switch
to "TRACK", then press both the【SET】and【▲】switches at the same time for less than 2seconds. This adjusts the meter to zero. (Note:
If you press the switches for than 2 seconds, themeter will go into another mode. If this happens, press【RESET】, then repeat the zeroadjustment process.)

2. Take some tension off the Fidaptor's spring byrunning the screwdriver in reverse "REV", sothat spring can be turned slightly by hand.
3. Press the reset switch to return the display tozero.

4. Set【MODE】switch to "PEAK" or "F.PEAK".

4. Run the driver in the forward direction "FOR"  until it stops automatically. The Fidaptor spring
will tighten.

• In peak mode the peak torque value reachedduring measurement is displayed. Thus, the display does not change. Model HP-100 measures
up to 10 N•m of torque, which corresponds toa display value of 15. Please conduct measurements within this range.

5. When the driver stops the display will show theoutput torque of the driver.
6. Release the tension on the spring by runningthe driver in the reverse "REV" direction, thenpress the reset switch to cancel the display.

• In "F.PEAK" mode the first peak value isdisplayed and does not change even if higher
torque is applied.

7. Repeat the above procedure to confirm theoutput torque value. Refer to the output torqueguide table in the operating instructions foryour HIOS power screwdriver to set the torqueadjustment nut to an appropriate torque value.

5. Press the【RESET】switch to cancel the display.  
6. Minus signs appear in front of measurements ofcounterclockwise torque.
7. To output data using a Mitutoyo Input Tool, set
the No. 3 connector of the DIP switch (page 8)
to the on position (so the "P.ON" LED lights),
set the【MODE】switch to "PEAK" and press
the【RESET】switch (which functions thesame as the Enter key on a computer) . The

■ Use of the socket

Cautions in making a socket adapter

In addition to the Fidaptor or threaded shaft, it ispossible to make one's own adapter to fit torsion
tool bits of different diameters into the socket formeasurement. Keep the following points in mind
when fashioning such an adapter.

• Make sure that the adapter fits snugly into thesocket.
• Make sure the adapter is strong enough that it
won't break during measurement.
• Do not attempt to use an adapter that delivers
more than 10 kg of vertical torque.
• Do not use this torque meter to measure impact
torque tools.

only the battery charger provided with the meter.
Always turn the power off when charging. The firsttime will require 6 hours for a full charge.

Caution• Do not recharge the battery for longer than 6 hours.
• Use only NiMH batteries, never any other kind,even if obtained from HIOS Corporation.
• Do not use the meter while charging the battery.
• When the letters "LOBAT" appear in the display,stop measurement and recharge the battery.

• Do not use the battery charger for any purpose
other than charging batteries for this instrument.
• Do not place objects on top of the battery charger's cord. Do not subject the cord to extreme
bending or tie it in knots.
• Be sure the power to the instrument is off when
attaching or detaching the battery charger.  
• Do not attempt to remove the battery from the
instrument.

Danger!
• Leaving the battery charger on for the maximum
recharge time of 6 hours could lead to overheating, damage to the instrument or fires.

■ How to recharge

1. Turn off the power to the torque meter and insert
the battery charger cord into a power source.  
2. When recharging is complete, unplug the cord,
turn the torque meter power switch on and checkthat the display goes on.
3. Wait for the battery charger to cool, and store itin an appropriate location.

■ Types of data output

Use the Mitutoyo Input Tool (available for purchase from many dealers) to transfer measurement
data to a computer.
• USB keyboard conversion type, P/N: IT016U* Input tool cannot be used for some PCs. For
details, please contact Mitutoyo Corporation.
Connection cable   NO.06AGF590   2m (soldseparately)(Please contact Mitutoyo Corporation or a Mitutoyo
dealer about purchasing these items.)■ Types of analog data output

An analog cord is available for separate purchase(1.5 m, item HP-8060). This cable can be used toconnect a pen recorder, oscilloscope or voltmeterto the HIOS torque meter. When using these
instruments, read their operation manuals to insure
correct operation.

■ Customer service• Repair
1. Service charges will be made for repairs under
the following circumstances:(1) Malfunctioning or damage caused by incorrect use of the instrument, the instrument has
been disassembled or it malfunctions due toattempted repair.
(2) Oil has been added to the socket, switches
or inside the instrument.
(3) The instrument has been damaged during
shipping, by dropping, etc.
(4) Damage due to fire, exposure to gas, earthquake, water, irregular power supply or othertype of disaster.
(5) Service charges will also be made for calibration, inspection or parts replacement for
the Fidaptor, etc.
2. No charge will be made for service in the caseof inspection and/ or calibration of the same partthat becomes necessary within three months af-

ter inspection or calibration has been performed.
(This does not apply under circumstances (1) −(4) above.)• Shipping and handling charges incurred for repair service must be paid by the customer. Please
direct questions about customer services to HIOS
Corporation or your HIOS dealer.

■ Attention

The product that you have purchased contains a
rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable.  At
the end of it's useful life, under various
state and local laws, it may be illegal
to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream.  Check with yourlocal solid waste officials for details inyour area for recycling options or proper disposal.

■ Inspections and calibration

HIOS torque meters employ a unique sensor mechanism that maintains accuracy for long periods. A
tool for checking its accuracy (the HIOS calibration
check bar) is provided, but in addition to this, werecommend that the torque meter be sent in to HIOS
Corporation for inspection at least once a year. (Notethat a fee is charged for this service.)
HIOS torque meters are shipped calibrated to meet
our accuracy standards. Depending on the conditions under which the meter is used, accuracy may
be affected over the course of months or years.
Therefore, HIOS offers calibration and, when necessary, overhaul services. We also recommend useof the periodic calibration documentation included
with the torque meter. This documentation shows
the relation of the HIOS standards to Japan's standards.

■ Cautions to be observed whensending the torque meter in for
calibration or repair

1. Pack the meter in the attache case in which it
was originally shipped to protect it from violent
impacts during shipping.
2. Do not put anything into the attache case otherthan the items originally shipped inside. Never
include items such as homemade mounting
plates, tools or extra bits. HIOS cannot assume
responsibility for these.
3. Please explain the nature of the difficulty with
the instrument in sufficient detail.
