Is this tool suitable for all types of motorcycles?

It is suitable for motorcycles with front fork stanchion diameters within the 35mm to 45mm range. Always measure your forks to confirm compatibility.

How do I ensure I don't damage the oil seal?

Use gentle, tapping motions and ensure the tool is seated evenly around the seal. Avoid excessive force. The tool is designed for controlled pressure.

What material is the tool made from?

How should I store the tool?

Clean the tool after use and store it in a dry place. Applying a light coat of oil to the adjustment mechanism can prevent rust.

Troubleshooting

Tool does not adjust smoothly

Clean the adjustment mechanism of any debris. Apply a small amount of lubricant if necessary.

Difficulty seating the oil seal evenly

Ensure the tool is set to the correct diameter and the seal is properly aligned in the fork leg. Apply gentle, consistent taps rather than forceful blows.

Tool feels loose on the fork

Re-check the adjustment to ensure it is locked securely onto the fork diameter. The jaws should provide a snug fit.
