ABSTRACT:
A lever force gauge, for measuring the force necessary to pivot a lever, includes a connector for attaching the device to the end of a lever, and a positioner to which a load cell is attached for producing an electrical signal indicative of the force exerted by the operator to move the lever. The positioner is pivotally attached to the connector in such a way that it can be pivoted to any of three positions to orient the load cell in the desired direction to exert a force on the load cell to move the lever and measure the force exerted before the lever moved. The load cell is connected via an electrical cable to an instrument that records and displays the peak force exerted on the load cell to move the lever.
