How to use

Select the appropriate jaw opening by turning the adjustment mechanism until the wrench fits snugly around the pipe or fitting. Position the jaws so the fixed and movable teeth engage the pipe surface, then apply steady force to turn the pipe in the required direction. Release the adjustment to remove the wrench. For safer operation, ensure the workpiece is supported and apply force gradually to avoid slipping or damaging the pipe surface.

Usage recommendations

Use the wrench on clean pipe surfaces and avoid excessive force that could deform soft materials. Inspect the jaw teeth regularly for wear and keep the adjustment mechanism free of debris. When working on plated or finished fittings, consider using protective padding between the jaws and the workpiece to prevent surface damage.
