That's funny. Me too! I know it's supposed to be in the tool kit, but mine was missing.

That tool is only useful for the measurement. I use a channel lock plier on the lock nut.

I know I can use pliers but i`m looking for the tool so I know where its adjusted too.

Thanks

If I recall , the tool is too big to fit in the tool kit so they put it with your owners manual. Look around if you bought it new you have the tool somewhere.

anyone with a part number for the tool

I think the Yamaha Canada Part Number is 2NK-28135-00 Spanner Wrench

I ordered the spanner mentioned above and it is steel with no markings on it??? I think it should have a rule on it somewhere..

My 08 APEX has the spanner wrench in the tool kit and is marked min - max on it.

I find the spanner in the tool kit useless, it just slips off and you end up rounding off the segments and busting knuckles. At best it is a handy measuring tool for min/max transfer.
I have found the best way to loosen/tighten is to use a slightly blunt chisel with a brass hammer in the corner of the segments to break it loose and tighten. The shock force works much better than brute force in breaking the barrel loose. The diagram below shows the measurements that correspond with the min/max, so you can simply measure with a caliper or otherwise.
Cheers.
