Troubleshooting

Spanner does not fit the locknut.

Verify that the locknut is indeed 36mm. This spanner is sized for 36mm locknuts only. If the locknut is a different size, you will need the appropriate spanner.

Difficulty applying sufficient torque.

Ensure the handles are clean and dry for optimal grip. If the locknut is extremely tight, apply force smoothly and steadily. Check that the spanner is fully seated on the locknut to prevent slippage.

Spanner appears to be rusting.

Wipe the spanner dry immediately and store it in a dry place. Minor surface rust can often be removed with a fine steel wool or rust remover, followed by re-oiling lightly.
