I don't know, but it rather looks like some sort of torq tool. You measure the amount of pressure you are tightening screws or nuts.

Google translated it to be a torque measurement tool?

He is measuring the torque on the winding mechanism before and after his overhaul work, and stating that the torque is lower after the overhaul.

Its quite obviously a torque measuring tool. It is calibrated in Newtons/centimeter and the page with the illustrations heads each pic with the torque value (e.g. 17 N-cm).

Here's a link to a conversion calculator:

Dwig, I think that is Newton * Centimeters, rather than Newtons/Centimeters. Torque is the product of force times the length of the moment arm.
