HOW TO USE:
- For Adjusting Wheels (Axle Nuts): Locate the axle nut pipe wrench on one half of the Kickflip tool. Position the wrench over the axle nut on your truck. Turn clockwise to tighten the wheel for less wobble, or counter-clockwise to loosen if it’s too tight.
- For Adjusting Truck Stability (Kingpin Nut): Find the kingpin pipe wrench on the Kickflip. Place the wrench over the kingpin nut, located in the center of your truck. Turn clockwise to tighten the kingpin for more stability and less turn, or counter-clockwise to loosen for greater turning ease.
- For Mounting Base Plates (Small Nuts & Drivers): Identify the small nuts pipe wrench on the Kickflip. Use this wrench on the nuts that secure your truck’s base plate to the skateboard deck. To tighten the corresponding bolts from the top of the deck, use either the hex key wrench or the Phillips® screwdriver tip.
- For Maximum Leverage: Separate the two magnetic halves of the Kickflip. Use one half for the small nut wrench underneath the board and the other half with the hex key or Phillips screwdriver on top, allowing you to grip both ends for a secure hold.
