4. Betjeningsvejledning
Proper use of your GEARWRENCH tools ensures safety, efficiency, and longevity. Always select the correct tool for the task at hand.
4.1 Ratchets and Sockets
- Udvælgelse: Choose the appropriate drive size (1/4", 3/8", or 1/2") and the correct SAE or metric socket size for the fastener. Ensure the socket is a 6-point type for optimal grip and to prevent rounding of fasteners.
- Vedhæftet fil: Firmly attach the chosen socket to the ratchet. For extensions or universal joints, ensure they are securely connected between the ratchet and socket.
- Operation: The 90-tooth ratchets allow for a small 4-degree swing arc, which is beneficial in tight spaces. Turn the ratchet in the desired direction (tighten or loosen) using the directional switch on the ratchet head.
- Anvendelse: Apply steady, controlled force. Avoid using ratchets as pry bars or with impact tools, as this can damage the mechanism.
4.2 Combination Wrenches
- Udvælgelse: Choose the correct SAE or metric combination wrench size that fits snugly on the fastener.
- Anvendelse: Use the open-end for quick engagement and disengagement, and the box-end for greater torque and reduced risk of slipping.
- Sikkerhed: Always pull on the wrench rather than push to avoid injury if the fastener breaks loose unexpectedly.
4.3 Bit Driver and Bits
- Vedhæftet fil: Insert the desired nut driver, hex, or other bit into the bit holder socket or directly into the bit driver.
- Anvendelse: Use for driving or removing screws and other fasteners that require a bit.
5. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance will extend the life and performance of your GEARWRENCH tools.
- Rensning: After each use, wipe down tools with a clean, dry cloth to remove dirt, grease, and moisture. The full polish chrome finish is easy to clean and helps resist corrosion.
- Smøring: Periodically apply a light coat of machine oil to the moving parts of ratchets to ensure smooth operation.
- Opbevaring: Always return tools to their designated spots in the 3-drawer storage box. This prevents loss, protects tools from damage, and maintains organization. Ensure the side latches are secured before transporting the box.
- Inspektion: Regularly inspect tools for wear, damage, or corrosion. Replace any damaged tools immediately to prevent injury or further damage to fasteners.
6. Fejlfinding
Most issues with hand tools can be resolved with proper selection and technique.
- Socket glider: Ensure the correct size and type (SAE/Metric, 6-point) of socket is used. A worn or incorrect socket can slip and damage the fastener.
- Ratcheting Mechanism Issues: If a ratchet is not engaging properly, it may require cleaning and lubrication. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may be worn or damaged. Refer to the warranty section for replacement options.
- Stuck Fasteners: For stubborn fasteners, apply penetrating oil and allow it to soak. Use steady, increasing pressure rather than sudden jerks. Ensure the tool is fully seated on the fastener.
- Tool Damage: Avoid over-torquing tools beyond their intended capacity. Do not use extensions to increase leverage on ratchets, as this can cause damage.
