Installation Notes

Installation and removal of hex fasteners should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with proper drive tool use. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent rounding. Do not use hand sockets with impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact use. Inspect the socket for wear or cracking before each use.
