Troubleshooting
Spanner slips on fastener
Ensure you are using the correct size spanner (10mm) and that the fastener head is clean and free of debris. Confirm the spanner jaws are not worn. Engage the box-end side of the spanner for a more secure grip if possible.
Difficulty applying sufficient torque
Ensure the spanner is fully seated on the fastener. For increased leverage, consider using a pipe extension on the handle *only* if the material can withstand the increased force. Always prioritize safety and avoid excessive force that could damage the tool or fastener.
Signs of rust or corrosion
Clean the affected area with a rust remover or fine-grit sandpaper. Apply a light coat of oil to protect the surface. Ensure the spanner is stored in a dry place.
