this kit is right handed, so it only works on "normal, right handed screws"), as indicated. Don't whack your fingers, or other parts of the bike.ĥ) Apply vice grips to the square end of the extractor and turn to remove the screw as you normally would (assuming it is a "right handed screw". maybe later.)Ĥ) Whack it w/ a hammer to seat the extractor. The spiraled end should point into the screw. Simply start drilling again and remove.ģ) Take the second smallest (well, whatever size is appropriate, really) extractor and put it in the hole you've just drilled. If you stop drilling w/ the bit still in the hole, it may be difficult to remove. This applies to pretty much any time you drill metal.
You should also occasionally remove the bit whiel it is still spinning to break any metal "chips" in there. Note on drilling: While you should press pretty hard, don't press hard enough to bend and snap the bit. I usually go right to the second size right away as the smallest size extractor almost never works. (no pic) It is important to get it as close to the center as possible.Ģ) Drill out the screw using the smallest drill bit first. These are the tools I used, not counting a pair of vice grips:ġ) So, take your center punch, and put a little divit in the center of the stripped screw head. It's a "penetrating fluid." It gets in there and helps loosen bolts, screws, rusted stuff. I have already sprayed it with PB Blaster. I've used it many many times, and it has never failed me.įirst of all, I had to remove a screw that was stripped, from this bike: Well, I bought a rigid screw extractor kit for $4 (on sale) at Harbor Freight (a lot of their stuff is junk, stuff like this is okay, though). Hey all! Lot's of talk about can't get the carb screws out.
