Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This spanner requires no setup. It is ready for immediate use out of the packaging. Ensure the correct size fastener is being used to prevent damage to the tool or fastener.
Compatibility:
The Sealey CW15AF is an imperial-sized spanner, designed to fit 1-1/8 inch nuts and bolts. It is compatible with other tools and systems that utilize imperial measurements. It is not designed for use with metric fasteners, which could lead to slippage and damage.
Care:
To maintain the spanner's performance and appearance:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the spanner clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dirt, grease, and debris. The polished finish makes cleaning straightforward.
- Storage: Store the spanner in a dry environment, such as a toolbox or tool roll, to prevent moisture buildup and potential corrosion. Avoid storing it with excessively abrasive materials that could scratch the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the spanner for any signs of wear, damage, or deformation, especially on the jaw and ring ends. If any damage is found, discontinue use.
- Lubrication: While not strictly necessary due to the Chrome Vanadium steel and polished finish, a light application of oil can provide an extra layer of protection against corrosion in humid environments.
