Try the Craftsman open box wrench, a box end wrench open on one end enough to slide around the bolt. I bought one recently to use on the tension bolt of a Brooks Team Pro. Worked great.

The tensioning bolt is the in the minimum tension position. I want to adjust it so it starts to tension the leather. I thought the 10 mm Brooks spanner would fit the Belt, but the Fujista bolt is a 14 mm. The standard Craftsman type open ended wrenches do not fit in between the sides of the saddle at the nose, due to the wrench design.
Does anyone know if Fujista had a spanner, similar to Brooks, except in a 14 mm size??? If so, are they available or does someone have a long forgotten one not being used?? If not I'll look for a 14 mm compression fitting type wrench which is similar to the spanners. Would like to get one designed for the saddle.
