Troubleshooting

Socket does not fit the wheel nut.

Verify that your motorcycle model is listed under compatible models and that the wheel nut is either 41mm or 46mm. If not, this socket is not the correct size for your application.

Difficulty applying torque.

Ensure you are using a compatible 1/2" drive tool with sufficient leverage. Check that the socket is fully seated on the wheel nut and that there is no debris obstructing the fit.

Socket appears damaged or worn.

Discontinue use immediately. Inspect the socket for cracks or excessive wear. If damaged, replace the tool to prevent further damage to the wheel nut or injury.
