CAP-TA Cap Torque Testers
UNPACKING AND SETTING UP
1. Carefully unpack the CAP-TA and check for any damage. Inspect the con-
tents to ensure that you have received a tester complete with all accessories
– see “List of included items” below.
2. Place the tester on a firm, flat and level working surface free from vibration. If
preferred, the CAP-TA can be secured to a work bench with screws through
the four tapped holes in the underside of the base. Then fasten the sample
gripping posts into the desired holes on the sliders (see Fig. 1).
LIST OF INCLUDED ITEMS

be mounted to the inside of the sliders, or the out-
side.

These jaws are designed for use with unique
shaped samples. The four gripping arms per jaw
