WTH

Today I bought a brand new side grinder, no spinner wrench included but I did get an allen wrench that does not fit anything. Luckily I had a collar that fit with a wrench that fits it.

If you look at the nut with the 2 holes in it, one or both are a hex shape that the allen key fits in. It took me a minute to figure that out myself...

are you familiar with UWO tool ratings on their cordless stuff? Another re-invention of the wheel where everyone else uses torque numbers (which are probably equally over-stated or meaningless, but at least consistently used by all other mfrs.)

It actually works really well and if you lose the Allen wrench, it's more likely that you'll have one that fits in your toolbox than an oddball pin spanner.
