Torque Meter Frequently Asked Questions
Question number FAQ-1280
The torque detector is making a squeaking sound, but is there any problem with the measurement?
It seems to be coming from the belt inside the torque detector.
Please set the main unit's motor rotation direction switch to the neutral position and stop the motor. If the sound disappears, it will be the belt noise.
The countermeasure is to stop the entire system and, while the torque detector's motor is stopped, remove the main cover and apply a small amount of grease to the belt.
