1. Produktet er slutview

The GEARWRENCH 120XP™ ratchets are engineered for enhanced access and operational speed. The design incorporates a double-stacked pawl mechanism, providing 120 positions and a 3-degree ratcheting arc. Both ratchets feature a low-profile head and a flush-mounted on/off switch, facilitating access in confined spaces. The full polish chrome finish resists rust and corrosion, and the enclosed head design offers resistance to dirt infiltration. This set includes standard and extra-long handle lengths.

Nøglefunktioner:

• Double-stacked pawls engage a 60-tooth gear, ensuring strength and durability.
• 11-position push-button locking flex head design allows for adjustable angled access in both locked and unlocked positions.
• Compact head design, up to 22% more compact than previous ratchet designs, improves access to hard-to-reach fasteners.
• Enclosed head design provides resistance against dirt infiltration, extending tool life.

2. Opsætning

The GEARWRENCH 120XP Flexing Handle Ratchet Set is ready for immediate use upon removal from packaging. No assembly is required. Ensure the ratchets are clean and free of any debris before first use.

Indledende inspektion:

• Inspect both ratchets for any signs of shipping damage.
• Verify the smooth operation of the ratcheting mechanism and the flex head.
• Confirm the forward/reverse switch operates correctly.

3. Betjeningsvejledning

These ratchets are designed for efficient fastening and loosening of nuts and bolts when paired with appropriate sockets.

Fastgørelse af stikkontakter:

1. Select the correct size socket for the fastener.
2. Align the square drive of the socket with the drive anvil on the ratchet head.
3. Push the socket firmly onto the drive anvil until it clicks into place. Ensure it is securely seated.

Using the 120XP Ratcheting Mechanism:

• The 120XP mechanism provides 120 engagement positions, allowing for a 3-degree swing arc. This enables work in very tight spaces where a larger swing arc would be impractical.
• To change the direction of rotation (tighten or loosen), use the flush-mounted on/off switch located on the ratchet head. Push the switch to the desired direction.

Adjusting the Flex Head:

• The flex head can be adjusted to 11 different positions to provide optimal access angles.
• To adjust, press the push-button lock on the side of the ratchet head. While holding the button, pivot the head to the desired angle.
• Release the button to lock the head in position. Ensure the head is securely locked before applying torque.

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your GEARWRENCH ratchets.

Rensning:
