Using it
Push the hex key fully into the screw’s socket before you turn it: half in, it rounds the socket. Put the long arm in the screw to reach in, and the short arm to give the last turns more force, turning in quarter turns.
Keeping it
Keep it with the manual: the same tool tightens the furniture again later, and with this number a lost one can be asked for as a spare part.
