Using this Wolf Tooth bottom bracket tool is easy. First, find the large finger notches on the tool. You can use these to start threading the cups by hand. Once you've got it started, you can use a 3/8' square socket or 1' hex to attach a ratchet or torque wrench for more precise work. If you're using a Race Face Cinch crankset, most of the sockets have a 16mm hex that'll come in handy. And for Shimano setups, there's a bearing preload tool. When using the tool, make sure not to apply too much force suddenly, as it might damage the parts. After each use, wipe the tool clean with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or grease. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting, especially if it's exposed to moisture during use.
