How to use

Select a 1/2" drive ratchet or torque wrench and attach the socket onto the drive square until it clicks or seats securely. Place the socket over the 13 mm fastener and apply torque through the ratchet or wrench in the required direction. For fasteners requiring specific torque values, use a calibrated torque wrench and apply the prescribed torque setting. When working in tight spaces, combine the socket with a suitable extension bar or universal joint to improve access.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket before use for any visible damage or wear. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and do not exceed the rated capacity of the drive tool. To prolong life, clean and lightly lubricate the drive connection after use and store the socket in a dry environment.
