Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This tool is designed specifically for threaded bottom brackets featuring a 16-notch tool fitting. It is not compatible with other bottom bracket standards (e.g., press-fit without threaded cups, or those with different notch counts). Ensure your bottom bracket has 16 external notches before use.
Setup: The tool requires a standard wrench or socket (typically 3/8-inch drive) to engage with its interface for applying torque. Select the appropriate size wrench or socket that fits snugly onto the tool.
Care: After each use, clean the tool with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove grease and dirt. Store it in a dry place to prevent corrosion. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the aluminum finish. Periodically inspect the notches for any signs of wear or damage.
