Troubleshooting

Socket doesn't fit the fastener.

Double-check that you are using the correct size socket for the fastener. Refer to the size markings on the sockets. Try a different socket from the set.

Socket slips or strips the fastener.

Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener. Use the correct type of socket for the fastener (e.g., 6pt for 6pt bolts). Avoid applying excessive force. If the fastener is severely damaged, consider using a different tool.

Sockets are rusting.

Store the sockets in a dry place. Wipe them down after use to remove moisture and debris. Apply a light coat of oil if the sockets are exposed to moisture for long periods.

  3. Use: Select the correct socket size for the fastener. Make sure the socket fits snugly to prevent slippage.
