When using an adjustable wrench to turn a hex bolt, following the correct setup and safety procedure prevents fastener rounding and tool slippage. In what sequence should a worker prepare and operate the adjustable wrench to safely turn the fastener?
- 1Slide the open jaws completely over the flats of the bolt head so the fastener is seated deep in the throat.
- 2Turn the knurled adjustment screw until the movable jaw fits snugly against the bolt flats with no remaining play.
- 3Orient the wrench handle so the turning force is directed toward the solid, fixed jaw.
- 4Pull the wrench handle toward the body in a steady, controlled motion to rotate the bolt.
Cevap
1. Slide the open jaws completely over the flats of the bolt head; 2. Turn the knurled adjustment screw until the movable jaw fits snugly; 3. Orient the wrench handle so the turning force is directed toward the fixed jaw; 4. Pull the wrench handle toward the body.
The safe and effective sequence starts by seating the jaws deep over the hex flats, tightening the knurled screw to eliminate all jaw slack, orienting the tool so torque pushes against the stronger fixed jaw, and finally pulling the handle toward the operator for optimal control.
