Troubleshooting

Socket won't fit the fastener.

Ensure you are using the correct SAE size for the fastener. Check for any obstructions or debris in the socket or on the fastener.

Socket slips or rounds off the fastener.

Make sure the socket is fully engaged with the fastener. Apply even pressure and avoid excessive force. Check the fastener for damage and replace if necessary.

Sockets are difficult to remove from the rail.

Ensure the sockets are aligned correctly with the rail. If the rail is too tight, try gently adjusting the spacing of the holders.
