5.2 Using the 90-Tooth Mechanism

The 90-tooth design allows the ratchet to engage with only a 4-degree swing. This is particularly useful in tight or confined spaces where a larger swing arc is not possible.

1. Place the attached socket onto the fastener.
2. Apply steady pressure and rotate the handle in the desired direction. The fine-tooth mechanism will engage quickly.
3. When space is limited, only a small movement of the handle is needed to engage the next tooth, allowing for continuous turning of the fastener.

5.3 Proper Grip and Leverage

Hold the ergonomic handle firmly. For initial loosening or final tightening, apply force smoothly and steadily. Avoid sudden jerking motions.
