A system for adjusting torque value settings on click type torque wrenches. The system is configured to limit repetitive motions by an operator including limiting repetitive wrist movements to rotate a wrench handle, while also providing a very portable and easy to use system with built-in safety features. The system includes an electric motor or driver that is operable, e.g., by manual movement of a lever on a controller or control signals from a digital controller, to rotate the head of the wrench while the operator holds the wrench handle in an unlocked configuration. The operator inserts the head of the wrench into an adaptive, self-centering chuck provided at the output of the electric motor. A tool rest extends from a base of the system at an end opposite the mounting chuck, and this rest is configured to support the body of the wrench parallel to the motor shaft.
