        umm...to calibrate, you must bring it to a place that calibrates!

        We must bring all our gauges and test equipment every six months to get calibrated!

        we even need to calibrate our calibration cylinder!

          get a wrench that is a foot long or more. Get a weight and hang it at the 1 foot point on the wrench. Take that wrench and attach it to a bolt that will spin freely and is large (long) enough for you to attach your new Torque wrench. What ever the weight is at the end of the 1st wrench is what the Torque wrench is supposed to read. Hmm the wrench that has a weight attached to it must be parrell to the ground. Thats my idea.

              Seems I found the "calibration cylinder" http://www.rstechltd.com/hand_torque_wrench_test.htm
              Oh ya, and the instructions sorry for the "stupid" question.Ive never had a digital wrench before.
