Pipe spanner 13 Ø 13 mm for BLO edger  

The tube spanner for the sanding disc of the BLO edging machine is an essential tool used to tighten and loosen the nuts or bolts that secure the sanding disc to the machine.

Here is its main function and when it may need changing:

1. Installing and removing the sanding disc: The pipe spanner is needed to install and remove the sanding disc on the BLO machine. It is used to firmly tighten the nuts or bolts that hold the disc in place, ensuring a secure hold during the sanding process. When it's time to replace or clean the sanding disc, the pipe spanner is used to loosen the fasteners.

2. When to change it: Like any spanner or hand tool, a pipe spanner can wear out over time, particularly if it is used frequently. It should be replaced if it shows signs of wear such as deformation, breakage, or if the gripping surfaces become ineffective. A worn pipe spanner can compromise the ability to properly tighten or loosen nuts, which can affect the safety of the sanding disc installation.

We recommend checking the condition of the pipe spanner regularly and replacing it as soon as it shows signs of wear. Proper maintenance of tools ensures safe and efficient operation of the machine. For specific advice on the use and maintenance of the pipe spanner and other machine components, please refer to the Repex Floor leaflet for the BLO edging machine.
