Five wrenches, one slot driver, one brass tip with its two knurled tongue-adjuster nuts, and one drill bit.
Helper Lays the kit tools out on the bench and counts five wrenches, one tip and one drill bit.
What you're looking at
The kit's own tools: five hex wrenches, a 2.5 mm slot driver, a 2 mm drill bit, a brass brush, and the brass heat-set insert tip that screws into a soldering iron. The drawing dimensions its tongue: 2.4 mm across, 5.0 mm long.
| Fastener | Drive |
|---|---|
| M3 BHCS/FHCS | 2 mm |
| M3 SHCS | 2.5 mm |
| M4 BHCS | 2.5 mm |
| M5 BHCS | 3 mm |
| M5 SHCS | 4 mm |
| Set screw | 1.5–2 mm |
Tip
no 5 mm hex driver is needed. The M5 BHCS the frame uses is a 3 mm drive.
