Hints for optimum use
Screwdriving
• Always use the correct type and size of
screwdriver bit.
• If screws are difficult to tighten, try
applying a small amount of washing liquid
or soap as a lubricant.
• Use the spindle lock to loosen very tight
screws or to firmly tighten screws.
• Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit
in a straight line with the screw.
• When screwing in wood, it is
recommended to drill a pilot hole with a
depth equal to the length of the screw. A
pilot hole guides the screw and prevents
splintering or distortion of the wood. For
the optimum size of the pilot hole, refer
to the table below.
• When screwing in hardwood, also drill a
clearance hole with a depth equal to half
the length of the screw. For the optimum
size of the clearance hole, refer to the
table below.
