How to use

Insert the appropriate hex end into the hexagonal socket of the screw or bolt and apply steady rotational force to tighten or loosen. Use the longer arm for additional leverage when needed; switch ends to reach confined or angled positions. Store the hex key by its hanging hole to keep it accessible and prevent loss.

Recommendations

Use appropriate hand force to avoid rounding the fastener head. Keep the tool clean and dry; inspect for wear before use. For heavy-duty or high-torque applications, use a larger or dedicated tool to avoid damage.
