How should I maintain the tool after use?

Troubleshooting

Tool is difficult to turn or operate

Ensure the force screw is adequately lubricated with molybdenum disulphide grease. Check for any debris or obstructions in the screw threads or around the bush.

Bush is not being removed/fitted evenly

Verify that the tool is correctly seated against the bush and differential housing. Ensure no other components are obstructing the movement. Apply force steadily and centrally.

Thread damage on the force screw

Cease operation immediately. Inspect the screw for damage. Ensure consistent lubrication and avoid cross-threading or applying excessive force at an angle. If damaged, the screw may need replacement.
