Using a Torque Wrench Correctly

Positioning the thumb-screw

See Figure 3-6. Position the clamp so the thumb-screw is positioned at the
top of the clamp.

Turn the clamp to visually align the clamp flats with the flats on the test
port connector nut.

This positioning minimizes rotating the connector in the procedure step.
