I have a TWZ600 torque wrench that's way out of calibration. Does anyone know how to get to the adjustment screw? I dont see a removable cap or plug on this one.

I'd just set a known weight, on the end of it, and adjust to the point where it clicks, then do the math, to see how many ft-lbs it is actually reading.  If its off, just take some tape, and write on it, how much its off.  Otherwise, I think the tool truck dealers may be able to adjust it, on the truck, for no charge, if you have a good relationship with one, (or if you have a buddy pullin wrenches, at a place the truck stops at...)Wink
