In reading the instructions for a recently purchased torque wrench it states "Never use this wrench to break fastenres loose"
Why?
It also states,"Always pull-do not push-on the wrench handle"
If I am tighening whell lugs why can't I push.
Trying to learn and understand.
Thanks for any input.

the fasteners may be tighter than the rated capacity of the wrench so if you use it to "break" loose fasteners you could ruin the wrench. the push/pull thing also has me stumped because i can do see what is the difference
