# 9996956 Cranking Adapter | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta cranking adapter weighing 0.832 kg. It is the only cranking adapter in this run and is a turning tool rather than one of the drifts and adapters it is listed among.

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Cranking adapter, 0.832 kg
-   The only cranking adapter listed in this run
-   A turning tool, not a plain adapter
-   Service tool, ordered by tool number

## 🔌 Function

Engages the engine so it can be turned over by hand to bring it to a setting position or to check free rotation.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Drive teeth or flats worn or rounded, so the tool slips under load
-   Body cracked or distorted after being forced
-   Locating spigot worn, letting the adapter sit off centre
-   Adapter jumping off the drive instead of turning the engine cleanly

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Isolate the starting circuit before turning an engine by hand; an engine that cranks on the starter with a tool engaged will throw it
-   Turn in the normal direction of rotation only, and never use the adapter to free a seized engine by force
