The wheel sets are or were not consistent as to the nut size. They pack two wrenches so you always receive the correct one. At least I think that is how I remember it being described.

Brian's on it!  Standard hardware pack - cheaper to put both wrenches in instead of making separate hardware packages.  Good luck with the new Little Guy! :D

When I got mine I thought the same thing, what do you do with the little guy....

So I do what I normally do, tossed it in the tool box, might need it some day.

Right on Greg. Some day I will use those 25 year old nails I got at the flea market too. You never know.
