Opsætning

No specific setup is required for these tools. Simply identify the appropriate tool for the type of wheel nut cover or hub cap you intend to remove.

Betjeningsvejledning

Identifying the Correct Tool:

• Black ABS Tool: Ideal for larger, often plastic, wheel nut covers or hub caps that require a wider grip and leverage.
• Red Metal Tool: Suitable for smaller, often metal, nut caps that may be recessed or require a firmer grip.
• Silver Ring Tool: Best for very small or deeply recessed nut caps, or those with a central hole for insertion.

Removing Wheel Nut Covers:

1. Assess the Cap: Examine the wheel nut cover or hub cap to determine its type and the best point of engagement for removal.
2. Vælg værktøj: Choose the tool from the set that best fits the cap. The goal is to engage the cap securely without scratching the wheel surface.
3. Engage the Cap: Carefully insert the tool's tip under the edge of the cap or into its designated removal slot. Ensure a firm, stable connection.
4. Apply Gentle Leverage: With a steady hand, apply gentle, even leverage to pry the cap away from the wheel. Avoid sudden, forceful movements.
5. Fjern hætten: Once loosened, carefully pull the cap off the wheel.
6. Gentage: Continue for all remaining caps.

Opretholdelse

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and effectiveness of your tools:

• Rensning: After each use, wipe the tools clean with a dry cloth to remove any dirt, grease, or debris.
• Opbevaring: Store the tools in a dry place to prevent rust, especially for the metal components. Keep them organized to prevent loss.
• Inspektion: Periodically inspect the tools for any signs of wear, bending, or damage. Replace if necessary.

Fejlfinding

Hvis du støder på problemer, skal du overveje følgende:

• Cap Not Coming Off: Ensure you are using the correct tool for the cap type. Try repositioning the tool for better leverage. Do not force it, as this can cause damage.
• Risk of Scratching Wheel: If the tool is too close to the wheel surface, try a different tool or apply a protective layer (e.g., a thin cloth) between the tool and the wheel.
• Værktøjsglidning: Ensure the tool is clean and dry. Apply firm, steady pressure.
