The Sealey STW292.V2 is a digital torque adaptor designed for use with standard ratchets or breaker bars. It features a 200-1000Nm range, memory for 50 readings, and LED/audible alarms. Important: Do not press the Mem and Power buttons simultaneously, as this enters calibration mode.
Safety
- Do not apply force when the power is off.
- Do not turn off the device while applying torque.
- Do not exceed the maximum torque value.
- Ensure all components (adaptors, extensions, sockets) are rated for the torque being applied.
- Do not use worn or cracked sockets.
- Do not submerge in water or use organic solvents for cleaning.
Operation
Preparation
Unscrew the four cross-head screws on the rear battery cover. Install two AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Refit the cover and tighten the screws.

Power On
Press the Power button once. The display will show "trACE" or "PtoP" and then "0.0". The device automatically shuts off after 70 seconds of inactivity.

Selecting Unit of Measurement
Press the Mem and Peak/Trace buttons together to cycle through Nm, lb.in, and kg.m.

Setting Target Torque
Use the (+) or (-) buttons to adjust the target value. When torque approaches within 20% of the target, the red LED will flash and an intermittent buzzer will sound. Stop applying pressure immediately when the target is reached.

Peak or Trace Mode
Press the Peak/Trace button to toggle between modes. "PtoP" (Peak) captures the maximum torque, while "trACE" shows real-time torque.
Memory
In "PtoP" mode, press the Mem button for at least 1 second to store a reading. The device stores up to 50 readings (P01 is the latest, P50 is the oldest).
Maintenance
- Keep batteries dry and remove them if the device is not used for a long period.
- Do not mix old and new batteries.
- Clean only with a soft, damp cloth.
- Periodic re-calibration is required; contact your Sealey stockist.
