This guy's trolling. If he isn't, then recall there's a lot of things which work once or twice without immediate consequences.
Operator, do you mind if I ask what shop you work for?
I'm not trolling.
Once the OP is forced to do hub adjustments more than a half dozen times a day it becomes immediately apparent how to speed up said process. Loosen? Two cone wrenches on the inside. Tighten? Two normal wrenches on the outer locknuts. Only a small number of hubs come with their locknut/cone hardware tightened so much that this shortcut does not work. At which point you do it the slow way, or you undo them enough so that you can.
