Its form factor is optimized for use directly on the vehicle where clearance is limited, and an optional 1\/4-inch spanner extension can be added to the handle for extra reach and leverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the self-adjusting mechanism improve cutting consistency?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in self-adjusting feature keeps the cutting wheel at the right pressure as you work, eliminating the need to stop and re-tighten during a cut.
