Tips

To maximise the life of your ratchet, clean the mechanism regularly and apply a light machine oil to the gear head. Avoid using cheater bars or impact tools with this ratchet, as excessive force can damage the fine-tooth mechanism. Always ensure the socket is fully seated and the quick-release is engaged before applying torque.
