  1. pull the handle and read the needle scale for the torque being applied
  2. The top skinny bean is more like a laser pointer. The lower thick beam will BEND as you apply turning force (torque). The more force you apply the more the larger beam will bend. And as the beam bends, the upper beam will continue to point straight out to indicate the amount the lower beam has bent (therefore indicating the force / torque) being applied. Many torque wrenches have indicator marks in both english (ft/lb) and metric (N/meter). Just make sure you don't confuse the two. One is almost twice the other. === The only think you have to remember is that when you apply the force, the force on the handle should be right in the middle. That's why the handle wobbles. If you are pulling / pushing at the tips of the handle (and they can't wobble) them you are not doing it right. Good Luck === Don't forget to vote for the BEST ANSWER - please - whoever it may be.
