    Just got a to-150, identical to the one used. Quickly learned to use the bottom area of the head to be able to turn the knob higher and to also lower it until the tension has decreased and the handle easier to turn. After watching your video, especially after reading the tool's paper instructions, it has become very clear how to use the wrench properly and what NOT to do to have it around a while. The other styles of torque wrenches were fascinating, glad to know there is a variety and what is recommended for the different areas of a vehicle. Thank you.

    Give this man his own YouTube education channel. I learned more from this video than 11 other torque wrench videos.

  • @roninnovastar1321
    Very good video !! you explained very well, just to make sure , your stating, for click type torque wrench, Rule of thumb would be stop at first click sound, is this correct ? I see other guys double clicking on other videos, so the extra click is actually adding more a few foot pounds more torque than what was necessary ?
  • Just got my first click style torque wrench! Man you seriously have to have great grip strength to adjust the wrench. Any tips with adjusting it?
  • @LambentIchor
    Just got a new torque wrench and I was wondering what to you do if it doesn't zero out exactly on the horizontal line. Mine is just off and is on the horizontal of 28 nm when the dial is at 7. Do I just take the seven as zero, or is there a way to adjust it?
  • @barneymiller6204
    How/where do I get my wrench 'professionally calibrated'? I have been wanting to it myself with weights and a vise but have not yet. Also what about using extensions with a torque wrench?
  • @rudy5454
    For the 3/8ā€ torque wrench for brakes. When torquing the rotor bracket and calipers would the length of the torque wrench fit inside the wheel hub to be able to tighten them? Just wondering cause of the length of the wrench and the room size inside to tighten. Thankyou kindly.

    I didn't know about the triangles. I would always go in a star or hexagram pattern.
