FAQs

What material is the clutch basket holding tool made from?

The tool is manufactured from durable S25C steel.

What is the maximum opening size of the tool's jaws?

The jaws have a maximum opening of 120mm.

How do I adjust the jaws of the tool?

The jaws are adjusted using a screw thread mechanism, allowing for precise fitting.

Is this tool suitable for all motorcycle brands?

The adjustable design makes it suitable for a wide range of motorcycles, provided the clutch basket outer gear fits within its 120mm maximum opening.

How should I clean and maintain the tool?

Clean with a dry or damp cloth after use, store in a dry place, and lubricate the screw thread if it becomes stiff.

Can this tool be used for anything other than clutch baskets?

This tool is specifically designed for holding motorcycle clutch baskets and is not recommended for other applications.

Troubleshooting

Tool jaws won't open wide enough

Ensure the screw thread is fully loosened. If it still does not open sufficiently, the clutch basket may exceed the tool's 120mm maximum opening capacity.

Tool slips on the clutch basket

Check that the jaws are properly seated on the outer gear of the clutch basket. Tighten the screw thread further to ensure a secure grip. Clean any oil or debris from the basket gear and tool jaws.

Screw thread is stiff or difficult to turn

Clean the screw thread mechanism thoroughly. Apply a small amount of lubricant designed for tools or metal to the threads and work the screw back and forth until it moves smoothly.
