Setup

Your LEXIVON Master HEX Bit Socket Set comes pre-organized in its durable storage case. No assembly is required for the sockets themselves.

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the socket set from its packaging.
2. Inspect: Before first use, inspect all sockets and bits for any signs of damage or manufacturing defects.
3. Familiarize: Review the sizes stamped on the sockets and the case to quickly identify the correct tool for your task.

Operating Instructions

Using the LEXIVON Master HEX Bit Socket Set is straightforward. Follow these steps for optimal performance and safety:

1. Select the Correct Size: Identify the hex fastener you need to work with and select the corresponding SAE or Metric hex bit socket from the set. The sizes are clearly marked on each socket.
2. Attach to Drive Tool: Insert the square drive end of the hex bit socket onto your ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. Ensure it is fully seated and secure.
3. Engage Fastener: Place the hex bit end of the socket into the head of the fastener. Apply slight pressure and rotate to ensure a snug fit. The chamfered edges aid in smooth engagement.
4. Apply Torque: Apply steady and controlled force to turn the fastener. For critical applications, use a torque wrench to apply the manufacturer's specified torque.
5. Remove Socket: Once the task is complete, remove the socket from the fastener and then from the drive tool.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and performance of your LEXIVON hex bit socket set.

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the sockets and bits with a clean, dry cloth to remove dirt, grease, and debris. For stubborn grime, use a mild degreaser and ensure tools are thoroughly dried afterward.
• Lubrication: While the chrome plating and zinc phosphate treatment offer corrosion resistance, a light coat of rust-preventative oil can be applied periodically, especially if storing in humid environments.
• Storage: Always return the sockets to their designated slots in the enhanced storage case. This prevents loss, keeps them organized, and protects them from damage.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect for signs of wear, such as rounded hex edges, cracks in the socket, or excessive corrosion. Replace any damaged tools immediately.
