A ring spanner, also known as a socket wrench, is a tool used to tighten or loosen nuts and bolts. Its design features a circular opening that fits over the fastener, providing a secure grip and allowing for greater torque application compared to a traditional open-end spanner. Ring spanners come in various sizes and can be used in tight spaces where other tools may not fit. They are commonly employed in automotive, mechanical, and construction applications.

How do you use a spanner wrench?

I'm not sure what you are actually asking. But, spanner is simply the British term for what we call a wrench. Haynes manuals use British terms like boot/trunk, bonnet/hood, etc. Hope this helps. PreachJohn -- If you're asking what I was asking (and figured out) you're referring to that odd hooked "pin spanner". The trick for me was to figure out what I was supposed to hook the spanner onto and then twist like a normal wrench. I was trying to adjust the shocks on my motorcycle and it became much easier when I noticed the gear-like ring below the springs that worked admirably for getting a decent grip with the spanner to twist the adjustment ring.
