Tips For Using This Wrench
This tool is excellent for removing over-tightened filters or those that are hard to access. Â This tool is only for removal, it can NOT be used to install a filter. Â Only use it on disposable spin-on filters, not on cartridge style filters that use a metal or plastic re-usable housings as the sharp teeth will cause damage. Â
Here's how to use it in hard to reach locations where you still have access to the end of the filter: Install the wrench on the end of an extension that's long enough to reach the filter. Â Set the ratchet to the tighten, or right hand direction. Â Push the wrench against the back of the filter while rotating it the in right hand direction. Â This will cause the jaws to open and the wrench will slip down over the filter. Â Now reverse the ratchet and turn it to the left to remove the filter.
