Title: Torque Conversion
Post by: Hopper on July 01, 2013, 11:57:53 PM

Hello, I am new to the forum. I need to know how to convert the torque settings from the PDF manual I down loaded from the forum. The manual uses kgf/m and I need to know ft-lbs. Do you divide the kgf/m by .1383 to get ft-lbs? Thanks, Hopper.

Yes....   .138255 kgf/m = 1 ft-lbs.

This is where your smartphone can help a lot... download a converter application then just fill-in the figures and you get instant answers....  ;)
