No way, really? This is how you adjust a torque wrench? That's all there is to it? Wow!!! I have like 5 of the clicker type torque wrenches. I'm gonna go test ALL of them RIGHT NOW!

There is another way of recalibration, which may be less costly, but yours is straightforward 👌

I have a 40-year-old made in America torque wrench that i tested using the luggage scale pulling on wrench and it tested within a pound I guess they made them better back then mine does not even seem to have an adjustment and it was not that expensive just from local auto parts store

Once again young man very very great information . information that someone can actually use I’ve never looked to do something like that with my torque wrench but now I know how to adjust it. By the way I have a snap on the one that you dial the torque setting to can you adjust those also?✝️✝️✝️

I have the same adapter...I noticed you aren't waiting for the red signal and steady buzz. Only calibrating at green. My understanding is torquing to steady red gives accurate peak
