Removing the Mounting Stud from a Horn or Booster

Only use an allen wrench of the correct size in the socket head’s stud to remove the stud from the horn or booster.

Removing Replaceable Tips from a Horn

Use an open end wrench of the correct size to fit the wrench flats of the detachable tip. Use a spanner wrench (on horns with spanner wrench holes) or an open wrench (on horns with wrench flats) to provide an opposite force to keep the horn from turning in your hand. Refer to Figure 6–8 for the correct tip removal procedure.

NOTE

Do not hold a booster by the mounting rings when removing the stud from the booster. Use a spanner or open–end wrench to provide opposite force and keep the horn or booster from turning in your hand when loosening the stud. Use a spanner wrench on horns and boosters with spanner wrench holes. Use an open end wrench on horns and boosters with wrench flats.
