How To Use Wing Thing

Grip Wing Thing along the middle between its two Wing Loops.
Wing Thing is powerful. You need to apply only a small amount of force when using it. So, shorten up your leverage to avoid overtightening.

Place one of Wing Thing's Wing Loops over your wingnut and center.
One or the other Wing Loop will best fit any wingnut you encounter on any modern drum hardware brand. Align and center the nut inside the Wing Loop.

Pull back gently on Wing Thing.
This will nestle the wingnut inside Wing Thing's thin but strong patent-pending tip, and stabilize the tool.

Push Wing Thing down and left to tighten the wingnut.
A small "nudge" is all you need. Rotate the wingnut gently and sparingly to avoid overtightening.
