Oh, I don't know. I just pulled the example out of thin air.

Yeah, I did that for years! No problems, didn't even know it was wrong, until one day the threads stripped. Didn't know what I'd done. Fortunately a Stronglight puller still worked. After that I swore off Stronglight cranks. Now I have one again, and I have the correct tool, so all is good. The Stronglight tool often appears on ebay fo less than the Stein one.

Interestingly, it was a Stronglight crankset that got me into vintage bicycles!

I had raced what were vintage motorcycles, so perhaps already had such tendencies, but switched back to bicycle riding upon my return to California.

One day after coming out of The Off Ramp bike shop in Mountain View (silicon valley), I somehow spotted a crusty old road bike protruding from their large dumpster, and upon closer inspection spotted a Stronglight 93 crankset that I knew was a race-quality and to me a particularly attractive item. So I rolled the 1970 Peugeot home on bare rims alongside the bike I was riding, and thus a vintage-bicycle enthusiast was born!

Soon after, I moved to the inland foothills and began refurbishing the many under-geared vintage bikes that aging owners were turning into the local thrift stores due to the quite-hilly terrain. A lot of Stronglight cranks passed through my hands and I eventually acquired the correct vintage puller for them, though for everyday use I still mount these cranks on JIS or ISO cartridge bottom brackets nearly as often as not.

Oh, and here's that Peugeot I rescued from the bike shop trash bin, made it "fit" and put many hard, fast-as-I-can-ride miles on.
The UO8 behind it was only my second ($20) Salvation Army purchase, after finding a Viscount for $18.75, and I think that I took this picture the day that I bought my first (Fuji) Digital camera in 2001 or so.

Hey everyone, please don't highlight my cluelessness in a terrible light, some making fun of me is more than permissible. There were quite a few stronglight cranks, different models, and I don't have any examples of any of them in my possession any more to back this up.. Almost all of them were able to be finessed into accepting one or another type crank puller, be it the Park CCp-1, strong light puller or Campy puller that worked on Sugino, or over the years one form or another. There was one crank, again I don't have it in front of me, I think it was the model 93 that was on my 1988 Peugeot PX10, that any puller would just swim in the threads and not even conceivable make any contact or attempt at threading. I think I remember from working in the shop the tool was a socket with two holes allowing a round rod like a Philips screw driver to slip In and apply the torque. Again, just asking for my personal knowledge, but I do remember strong light were no real mystery, except that very early odd model. On the Peugeot I mentioned earlier, I still have the crank tightening bolts, and they are much larger than any other crank BB bolts I have, maybe a 16 or 17mm head, I don't want to dig around in garage right now.. If anyone needs them, I am not looking to give them away, but would ship at an extremely fair price. thanks for any help. to all be safe
As the Rapper PITBULL said in a song i heard recently ( not my cup of tea, but a lesson can be learned in many odd places ) " any day above ground is a good day " SO TRUE
