OPERATION

Screwdriving operation

Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then increase the speed gradually. Release the trigger just as the screw bottoms out. If the trigger is not released, the screw may strip out the hole or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

NOTE:

Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make driving easier and to prevent splitting of the workpiece. See the chart.
